The brutal beating of Tyre Nichols is captured in harrowing detail in four video clips released by Memphis police. Here is a description of what each video shows.
The videos, which were edited by police before their release, were shot between 8:24 p.m. and 9:02 p.m. that night. The four clips collectively run about an hour in total.
Nichols appears calm and can be seen sitting on the ground, while officers shout commands at him: “Turn around! Right now! Get on the ground!” This 30-minute clip, recorded by a security camera on a pole, has no sound, but shows Memphis police delivered at least two kicks and two baton strikes, and five punches to Tyre Nichols’s face.
At this point, there are at least seven officers on the scene, patting each other on the back and waving flashlights. Many are clearly out of breath; one fist-bumps another. “You about to get sprayed again,” the officer says as he gets to the scene. Then he pepper-sprays Nichols in the face, and Nichols screams in pain. “Mom!” Nichols yells, shielding his face. “Give me your hands boy,” another officer says.After the spray, the two other officers punch Nichols in the stomach and head. “Give me your f------ hands,” one officer says. “I’ll spray your a-- again.”
