LMPD releases arrest videos and dashcam footage from Scottie Scheffler incident

Videos have been released of the arrest of world-leading golfer Scottie Scheffler.

The Louisville Metro Police Department held a press conference on Thursday where officials said charges against the golfer, which stem from a May 18 arrest, would not be dropped. However, videos of the incident were released later that day.

Although there is no bodycam footage of the incident and subsequent arrest, LMPD released both pole camera and dashcam footage of the arrest on Thursday.

Even though the camera angles don’t particularly fully capture the incident, both videos shed a little more light on what happened.

Pole cam video shows Scheffler turning left when a police officer in a yellow vest chases and stops his vehicle. It’s unclear what the officer says to Scheffler, but the golfer gets out of his car and is arrested about 30 seconds after his vehicle was stopped.

Below is the mast video posted of the incident (in the video you can see Scheffler’s car stopping to the left of center):

The first video, a nearly hour-long dashcam video, shows from a different perspective how the golfer is stopped and then arrested and placed in a police vehicle. The incident can be seen starting at 22:46 in the video below.

In both videos, Scheffler’s vehicle is obscured by buses on the side of the road.

LMPD spokespeople said Detective Bryan Gillis, the officer who arrested Scheffler and filed an incident report on him, was subject to internal “corrective action” for failing to activate his body camera, as required by department policy.

Scheffler’s next court date is currently scheduled for June 3.
