Louisville sees third straight night of Breonna Taylor protests despite curfew

Protests over a grand jury's decision to not charge any police officers for Breonna Taylor's death continued for a third straight night in Louisville Friday, with several demonstrators arrested for violating the city's 9 p.m. curfew.

Demands to release transcripts from the grand jury hearing swelled after Breonna Taylor's family attorney, Ben Crump, accused Kentucky Attorney General Daniel Cameron of swaying the jury, rather than impartially presenting evidence as he was tasked.

"Release the transcript so that we can have transparency," he said at a family press conference after the decision.

Crowds chanted "release the transcript" with Crump on Friday before evening fell and police fired flashbangs to break up the demonstrations.
