Sacramento Skate Park Renamed in Honor of Tyre Nichols.
The Sacramento City Council has voted to rename the Regency Community Skate Park to the Tyre Nichols Skate Park in honor of the Sacramento native who was killed by Memphis police officers in January. Nichols was an avid skateboarder and spent numerous hours of his youth skating and building friendships at the park. The city is also partnering with the Tony Hawk Foundation to make improvements to the park, with the city allocating $20,000 towards its upgrades. Nichols will also be posthumously honored with a bronze plaque that will be installed at the park.
