nbc's maura barrett is following this story for us. i understand louisville police now admit a detective violated protocols during the arrest. what do we know about what happened here? >> reporter: it's been about a week since the arrest. we got an update from the police chief and the louisville mayor this morning, and they conceded that for transparency's sake, the only video that exists of this whole incident is actually of the arrest. we can only see the arrest. there isn't any video that exists of the interaction that the officer claims that scheffler dragged him with his car. that's something that's going to raise some question marks moving forward with the investigation. the two pieces of video that we received this morning, one was taken from a traffic pole across the street. it's very hard to see given the dark and gloomy rainy circumstances. it looks like you can see the arrest in that video. and then another video is the dash cam in which you see it appears to be scheffler walking across in front of the dash cam as he's arres

maura barrett has been following this story. >> scheffler was facing second-degree assault on a police officer and all of those dropped because he says as he and his team conducted interviews with police and witnesses, went through the video that does exist. remember, the police told us last week that they weren't aware of any video that actually showed the initial impact where the police alleged that scheffler had dragged the officer. and so the prosecuting attorney said that there was not any probable cause or evidence to support the charges that were at play. rule number one of prosecuting, as he put it, is to make sure they refrain from prosecuting a case without any probable cause. we heard from scheffler's attorney, both in court, accepting those motions saying that they have no objection to dropping the cause, and that he actually just wrapped up a press conference outside of the court. we haven't heard directly from scheffler, but the attorney said that they do have grounds to file a lawsuit against the police department, the louisville police department. he says that scheffler

maura barrett is following this one for us, what else did we learn from police about their investigation so far? >> reporter: the big headline from police at this morning's press conference there does not appear to be any video that shows that interaction that you described that police say that one of their officers was dragged by scheffler's car. the only video that does exist is the moment of the arrest and even that video is very blurry, very hard to see, one element of it comes from traffic camera across the road and the other comes from the dash cam video. all of that to say, a lot of questions surrounding why the officer did not turn on his body camera and that's what police said today, the department policy they have to have their body cameras operating functionally. he did face that corrected action. without that video evidence of the actual arrest that they're describing the interaction they're describing there are still a lot of question marks swirling around exactly what happened here. everything is moving forward. they're going forward with charges based on the internal inves
