Seven more police officers in Memphis are facing disciplinary charges for their roles in the death of Tyre Nichols, CNN reported on Tuesday.
The announcement of the charges against the officers comes as the fallout from the beating and death of Mr Nichols continues to roil Memphis and its police department. Six officers have already been fired for their role in the incident, as have two EMTs and a lieutenant in the city’s fire department. Five of the police officers have been charged with second-degree murder.
