The police of United States of America killed of a emergency health worker 26-year-old in her apartment in Kentucky has triggered a fresh wave of anger in the USA over officers shooting black civilians.
“Black Lives Matter” slogan protests have erupted regularly since 2012 over the shootings of unarmed African-Americans with many accusing police of racially biased brutality in United States of America.
An emergency medical technician (EMT) worker Breonna Taylor, was asleep when police burst in and shot her 8 times on March 13, Breonna`s lawyer Ben Crump said
Crump further said that, Officers had the wrong address and used a battering ram to enter the Louisville apartment without warning and were searching for a suspect who was already in custody.
Her boyfriend is still being held after the raid, while no police officer has been charged over her death, Crump said
Crump said in a statement that The police department “has not provided any answers regarding the facts and circumstances of how this tragedy occurred, nor have they taken responsibility for her senseless killing,”
According to The Washington Post, A lawsuit was filed last month accusing officers of wrongful death, excessive force and gross negligence.
Louisville Mayor Greg Fischer said that “My priority is that the truth comes out, and for justice to follow,”
