Following pressure from civil rights activists, public servants, private citizens and a number of celebrities at least one of three police officers involved in “no-knock” warrant lead to the fatal shooting of a Breonna Taylor in Louisville has been fired, the Louisville’s mayor Greg Fischer said.

Fired officer Brett Hankison is accused by the department’s interim chief, Robert Schroeder, of “blindly” firing 10 rounds into Taylor’s apartment, creating a substantial danger of death and serious injury.

Two other officers, Sgt. Jonathan Mattingly and Officer Myles Cosgrove have been placed on administrative reassignment while the shooting is investigated.

Breonna Taylor was shot eight times by officers who burst into her Louisville home using a no-knock warrant during a March 13 narcotics investigation.

I cannot tolerate this type of conduct by any member of the Louisville Metro Police Department,” he added.
