“YOU’RE NEXT,” James wrote in the original tweet, which featured an image of a police officer from video shot in Columbus, Ohio.
The tweet appeared to be a nod to the murder conviction against Derek Chauvin, the former Minneapolis police officer who killed George Floyd by kneeling on his neck last year.
Bodycam footage released by police shows the officer firing several shots at Bryant as she charged at another person with a knife.
I took the tweet down because it’s being used to create more hate,” he wrote in another tweet.
