The South Carolina police officer charged with murder after shooting an unarmed man in the back had been accused in 2013 of excessive force in a confrontation with another black man.
Officials are now reviewing their decision to exonerate him in the earlier case.
North Charleston Police spokesman Spencer Pryor said the department will take another look at its decision to absolve officer Michael Thomas Slager of any wrongdoing in a case involving his use of a Taser against Mario Givens, who recounted his encounter with the officer in an exclusive interview with The Associated Press.
Slager has now been fired and is charged in the shooting death of Walter Lamer Scott following a traffic stop over a broken taillight.
