Suspect of Louisville Cop Shooting in Custody

What Happened:

• A suspect accused of being involved in the shooting of two Louisville police officers during the Breonna Taylor protests Wednesday night is now in custody.

• He has been identified as Larynzo Johnson, 26, and has been charged with wanton endangerment and assault of a police officer. He will be arraigned on Friday.

• The Louisville Police said nearly 100 arrests were made overnight amid the protests after the Wednesday's grand jury decision to not charge any officers with the death of Breonna Taylor.

• Wednesday's long-awaited grand jury decision came more than 6 months after Taylor was fatally shot in her home. Kentucky AG Daniel Cameron announced Wednesday that 1 of the 3 officers involved in the shooting will be indicted on criminal charges. The other two officers will not be indicted.

• The decision has led to widespread protests and demonstrations nationwide against police brutality and systemic racism.

• Taylor, an EMT, was shot and killed by police in her apartment six months ago following the execution of a no-knock search warrant.
