Tyre Nichols honored with sunset lantern release
A lantern release honoring Tyre Nichols took place at Martyrs Park in Downtown Memphis Sunday, April 9, one day shy of the 90-day anniversary of his death.
Twenty-nine paper lanterns alighted over the Mississippi River around the 7:30 p.m. sunset representing each year of Nichols’ life.
Twelve canvasses of his photography, many featuring sunsets, faced the crowd as they looked over the river.
