Two members of the Memphis Fire Department were relieved of duty last week after being part of “initial patient care” for, the 29-year-old Black man who died following his arrest by Memphis Police Department officers. According to the fire department, the staff members were relieved while officials conduct an internal investigation.
Five police officers were fired outright following MPD’s own internal investigation for violating “multiple department policies, including excessive use of force, duty to intervene, and duty to render aid,” according to a release by the City of Memphis. While public details from the arrest are still scarce, the city is bracing for the release of video showing what happened to Nichols, who died three days after his arrest.
