A grand jury decided no charges will be filed on six West Memphis, Arkansas police officers in connection with a chase and shooting that killed two people. The police department says the six officers involved remain on paid administrative leave. West Memphis police held a press conference Friday morning. The department is still conducting its own investigation into the actions of the officers involved. The police chief described the events of January 16 as violent. The department said this all started as traffic because the car in question had its high beams on and no license plate. When the officer turned on the squad car’s lights, a chase began.
