The AM/DM podcast: No Kings’ end, ongoing fugitive search
Roughly a month ago, Memphis Police Department officer Oscar Torres-Molina was shot during what should have been a routine traffic stop.
Though police know who the alleged shooter is, he hasn’t been found yet.
The Daily Memphian’s public safety reporter, Aarron Fleming, was curious about that recently, especially in light of the extra manpower on the ground due to the Memphis Safe Task Force.
Fleming joins us today to talk about it, as well as his thoughts on this past weekend’s No Kings event. During his time at The Daily Memphian, he’s covered a number of protests and marches, and he said he was “fairly surprised” that the police used a chemical agent on the march’s safety marshals.
