Louisville, KY Police Filed Nearly Blank Report After Killing Breonna Taylor
----------------------------------------------------------------------------

Calls are growing for the arrest of the Louisville police officers
involved in the killing of Breonna Taylor, the 26-year-old African
American emergency room technician who was shot to death by police
inside her own apartment in March. On Wednesday, the police department
finally released its incident report from that night - but the report is
almost entirely blank. It lists Taylor's injuries as "none," even though
she was shot eight times. The report claims there was no forced entry by
police, even though officers used a battering ram to knock down her
door.

Meanwhile, Louisville police are investigating sexual assault
allegations against Brett Hankison, one of the officers who shot Taylor.
Two women have claimed he sexually assaulted them after giving them
rides home in his police vehicle.
