Louisville police officer who arrested Scottie Scheffler was previously suspended

The police officer who handcuffed world number one Scottie Scheffler has a long disciplinary record that includes at least one suspension, according to employment documents released Thursday.

Detective Bryan Gillis took Scheffler into custody a week ago last Friday when the golfer attempted to enter the Valhalla Golf Club while police were investigating a fatal accident nearby.

Scheffler claimed he followed police instructions on how to enter the club. However, when he was arrested, the police officer said Scheffler did not follow the instructions.

To complicate matters further, city officials said Detective Gillis did not activate his body-worn camera when he encountered Scheffler.

The only footage so far appears to be from a patrol car dashboard camera and a streetlight. It is not clear from either video what led to Scheffler being handcuffed.

The Louisville Metro Police Department released this footage and Gillis’ personnel files on Thursday.

Gillis was suspended for five days for “disorderly conduct” for “driving an intoxicated civilian in his police vehicle” and “subsequently doing doughnuts in a company parking lot,” according to a Sept. 18, 2013 memo from then-Police Chief Steve Conrad.

According to a June 9, 2021 memo from then-Police Chief Erika Shields, he was also disciplined for “pursuing a vehicle that was not used to commit a violent crime and was not wanted on a warrant.”

Officer Gillis was found guilty for accidents on May 22, 2021 and August 6, 2019, which resulted in verbal reprimands.

Gillis was also found “guilty” of causing an accident on December 1, 2013, which resulted in a verbal reprimand and mandatory driver education.

However, he received a commendation for being among seven officers who went “above and beyond the call of duty” during a “high-intensity traffic enforcement operation.” “The operation culminated in you issuing an incredible 108 of a total of 201 citations issued (114 charges, 1 arrest for DUI) during the four-hour operation period on September 16, 2021.”

A representative of the River City Fraternal Order of Police Lodge 614, the union that represents LMPD investigators, was not immediately available for comment Thursday.
