Scottie Scheffler incident: Louisville police release findings of investigation into police officer

Louisville officials have revealed the results of an internal investigation into an incident involving world No. 1 golfer Scottie Scheffler last Friday before the second round of the PGA Championship. The officer who initially interacted with Scheffler was cited by the Louisville Metro Police Department for failing to follow departmental procedure during the arrest. Charges against Scheffler have not been dropped, and police indicated they will let the judicial process run its course.

Louisville Mayor Craig Greenberg and Louisville Metro Police Department Chief Jacquelyn Gwinn-Villaroel announced the findings during a press conference on Thursday morning.

Detective Bryan Gillis has received "corrective action," in Gwinn-Villaroel's words, for violating department policy by not turning on his body camera.
