   Louisville, Ky. — At least seven people were shot as hundreds of   
   protesters in downtown Louisville gathered to demand justice for   
   Breonna Taylor, the 26-year-old Louisville ER tech who was shot   
   and killed by Louisville Metro Police in March.   
      
   Some shots were heard on scene just before 11:30 p.m., and a   
   police spokeswoman confirmed the injuries at 1 a.m. in a   
   statement. Two victims required surgery.   
      
   "There have been some arrests, but at this time we are not able   
   to tell you how many as the situation is ongoing," the statement   
   from spokeswoman Alicia Smiley said. "Information on those   
   arrests will be available tomorrow through court records of the   
   arrests."   
      
   Police officers did not fire their guns, Smiley said.

   I urge protesters, as Breonna Taylor’s family said tonight, to   
   say her name. But let’s not see anyone else get hurt. Let’s work   
   together for peace, justice & for Breonna & all of Louisville.

   50 people are talking about this   
   Chants of "no justice, no peace" echoed through the streets as   
   night fell and the hundreds who gathered traveled down Jefferson   
   and Main streets. What started as a peaceful protest in the   
   evening escalated as the night drew on, with the crowd being   
   teargassed and glass storefronts shattered. As heavy rains moved   
   into the area in the early morning hours, much of the crowd   
   dispersed.   
      
   The protests in Louisville unfurled as other cities saw similar   
   demonstrations over police killings of black Americans,   
   including in Phoenix, Denver and Minneapolis, where a man named   
   George Floyd died after an officer pressed his knee into Floyd's   
   neck. Floyd's death was captured on camera, igniting a reaction   
   across the nation.
