Tyre Nichols, who loved to skateboard, could soon have his name emblazoned on skate parks in Memphis and Sacramento ... TMZ has learned.
A rep for the City of Memphis tells TMZ ... leaders are having preliminary conversations about naming a park after Tyre. Mayor Jim Strickland is floating the idea to the City Council.
We're told the Mayor and City Council are meeting Friday to discuss plans, including whether they'll build a new park in Tyre's honor, or rename an existing one.
Since Tyre's tragic death, videos have been circulating online of him showing off his skateboarding skills.
