"Real Housewives of Atlanta" star Porsha Williams was among the dozens of people arrested on Tuesday in Louisville, Kentucky, after joining a Breonna Taylor protest outside the home of Attorney General Daniel Cameron.
More than 100 protesters gathered in the city to march before settling on the front lawn of Cameron's home, according to multiple reports.
Authorities said 87 people have been arrested and are facing a felony charge of intimidating a participant in a legal process, a Class D felony; second-degree disorderly conduct, a Class B misdemeanor; and third-degree criminal trespass.
The crowd of protesters sat on the front yard of the attorney general's home chanting and demanding justice for Taylor. Authorities informed protesters prior to the large number of arrests that remaining on the property is unlawful and will lead to arrests, Louisville Metro Police Department (LMPD) officials said.
The LMPD on June 23 fired police officer Brett Hankison, who was involved in Taylor’s shooting death.
Schroeder also said that Hankison—one of three officers involved in Taylor’s shooting—violated the rule against using deadly force. The remaining two officers have been placed on administrative leave.
The special agent in charge of Louisville’s FBI field office said earlier this month that federal officials are working to probe potential civil rights violations by the Louisville police officers involved in Taylor’s shooting death.
