Police in riot gear stand in formation during protests on Friday in Louisville, Kentucky.Like other cities across the U.S., Louisville has been the location of demonstrations sparked by the death of Minneapolis resident George Floyd, who died while in police custody on Monday. Protesters have been calling for justice in the Floyd case. In Louisville, demonstrators have been decrying not only Floyd's death but the shooting of Breonna Taylor by members of the LMPD.
In March, Taylor was shot at least eight times in her apartment as officers served a no-knock search warrant. The terms of the warrant stated that officers did not have to announce their presence or introduce themselves as police. Taylor's partner, Kenneth Walker, believed their home was being invaded and fired upon the officers. Officers shot back, hitting Taylor in the process.Demonstrations in Louisville over Taylor's shooting resulted in seven people being shot Thursday night.
