A Texas grand jury has indicted nine Austin police officers for alleged excessive force at the city’s 2020 Black Lives Matter protests, with more indictments likely to follow.
This could wind up as the highest number of officers indicted in connection with the protests sparked by George Floyd‘s 2020 murder, the Austin American-Statesman reported. The police did not immediately identify the officers or their charges.
This is a developing story and will be updated as more information becomes available.
