Hamza "Travis" Nagdy, Leader of Breonna Taylor Protests in Louisville, KY, Killed in Shooting
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

In Kentucky, a leader of the movement demanding justice for Breonna
Taylor has been fatally shot. Twenty-one-year-old Hamza "Travis" Nagdy
was reportedly struck by multiple bullets during a suspected carjacking
early Monday near the University of Louisville campus. Police have
released few details and have not named a suspect. Nagdy was well known
for leading chants over his bullhorn at Black Lives Matter events
demanding that the officers who shot and killed Breonna Taylor in her
own home last March be charged with murder. Nagdy voted for the first
time just three weeks ago, in the November 3 election.
