Tyre Nichols, a Black man who died days after he was pulled over by police in Memphis, suffered “extensive bleeding caused by a severe beating,” according to preliminary results of an autopsy commissioned by attorneys for his family.
“His observed injuries are consistent with what the family and attorneys witnessed on the video of his fatal encounter with police on January 7, 2023,” attorneys Benjamin Crump and Antonio Romanucci said in a statement.
The full findings of the report were not made public, but they “will be disclosed at another time.”
