Louisville Metro Police Chief Paul Humphrey said Tuesday that he will fire the officer who shot and killed a naked man Saturday night.
LMPD said the resignation ensures "that Mr. Stotts is immediately and permanently separated from LMPD. His personnel record will reflect that he resigned while in the process of being terminated."
Nathan Stotts is charged with manslaughter and reckless homicide in the death of 27-year-old Martin Nitzken Jr.
