Breonna Taylor grand jury decision spurs NYC protests
Demonstrators gathered in Downtown Brooklyn Wednesday night to protest a Kentucky grand jury’s decision not to indict any police officers for the fatal shooting of Breonna Taylor.
Chanting “Say her name, Breonna Taylor,” the crowd then started marching in the street, past onlookers and honking cars. They were accompanied by musicians, setting a steady drum beat.
The grand jury indicted one Louisville officer in connection to the March 13 killing, but for shooting into a home next to Taylor’s that had her white neighbors inside. No charges were brought against the two officers who fired their weapons at Taylor, in her home, killing her.
