Demonstrators in Louisville protest police killings

US rallygoers chanted "No justice, no peace" in Louisville, Kentucky on Friday evening on the heels of protests the previous night that left seven shot.

The demonstrations were organized over the fatal police shooting of Breonna Taylor in March, as well as George Floyd's death in Minneapolis police custody most recently.

Taylor, a 26-year-old emergency medical technician, was shot eight times by police in her home.

A Louisville police statement confirmed at least seven shooting victims Thursday night.

A spokesman says no officers fired their service weapons but there were "some arrests."

Hundreds of demonstrators marched through the Kentucky city's downtown Thursday night.

Protesters across the country, in cities including Los Angeles, Denver, New York and Memphis, have turned out in alliance with demonstrators in Minneapolis.

That's where Floyd became the latest black man to die in police custody.

It also came hours after the release of a 911 call Taylor's boyfriend made on March 13, moments after the 26-year-old emergency medical technician was shot eight times by narcotics detectives.

They knocked down her front door. No drugs were found in the home.
