LOUISVILLE, Ky. — Hundreds of protesters again gathered in downtown Louisville on Friday for another night of protests to honor Breonna Taylor and demand justice for her death.

About two hours before the city's 9 p.m. curfew went into effect, a clash between police and protesters had already occurred as police used flash bangs to disperse a crowd, briefly blocked the route of a march, arrested at least one person and declared an an unlawful assembly.

Dozens of demonstrators later regrouped as a leader urged those remaining to go home before a 9 p.m. curfew began. Some, but not all, left.

Some downtown Louisville business have chosen to close through weekend due to damage caused during the ongoing protests. A citywide curfew, criticized by The American Civil Liberties Union of Kentucky, went into effect Wednesday and will run from 9 p.m. to 6:30 a.m. each day until Monday morning.
