The Louisville Metro police department has taken “corrective action” against an officer who arrested Scottie Scheffler before the second round of the US PGA Championship last week. The department said the officer failed to activate his body-worn camera (BWC) during the arrest.
The police chief, Jacquelyn Gwinn-Villaroel, said at a news conference on Thursday that the LMPD detective Bryan Gillis violated the department’s body-cam policy, which says officers are required to “maintain their BWC in a constant state of operational readiness”.
