Crump and Romanucci said the footage shows that Nichols did not originally run when being approached by officers, and told them that "he was just trying to get home" from FedEx, where he worked, and yelled for his mother three times toward the end of the video.

Rowvaughn Wells spoke through tears at the press conference, recalling how good of a boy her son was and demanded justice following his death.

The officers were identified as Tadarrius Bean, Demetrius Haley, Emmitt Martin III, Desmond Mills Jr., and Justin Smith.
