Tyre Nichols police report: Cop is the victim, ‘irate’ Nichols grabbed for gun. Video contradicts it all

Video evidence shows how officers approached Nichols’ car while threatening and abusing him, pulled him out, and then pushed him to the ground. The police report filed paints a different scene.

The police report filed in Memphis, Tennessee, following the beating of Tyre Nichols lists the officer who filed it as the victim and the now-deceased FedEx employee as an “irate” assailant. However, video footage strongly contradicts these assertions.

Nichols, 29, died three days after the Jan. 7 beating. The police report, filed early the following morning, claims he tried to fight Memphis police officers, even reaching for one of their weapons, according to today!
