The case of the nurse and nurse student Breonna Taylor's case has been noted in connection with the demonstrations in the US against police violence and racism.

She died after being shot eight times by police during a search of her home in Louisville.

The police had a "no-knock warrant", which means that they were allowed to do the house search without having to store or tap.

Forbidden in Louisville

When the recording of the alarm call from Breonna Taylor's boyfriend began to spread in late May, protests arose in Louisville.

No-knock warrants are now banned in the city, the AP reports.

- All she wanted was to save lives, with this law she will continue to do so. She had been so happy, says Breonna Taylor's mother Tamika Palmer according to AP.

The details of what really happened when Breonna Taylor died go apart.

According to her boyfriend, the two were asleep inside the home when the police pulled in without warning. The boyfriend says he shot at the police, with a weapon he is licensed for, because they thought they had been burgled.

An exchange of gunfire between him and the police occurred, which ended with Breonna Taylor being hit by eight shots.

The police have been relocated

The three police officers who participated in the shooting reported that they made themselves known before they entered the home. They are under investigation and have been relocated for the time being.

An incident report from the house search, released by the Louisville Police earlier this week, has been criticized. Few details appear in the report and it is completed, among other things, that no victim was injured.

The house search was part of a drug investigation, but no drugs were found in Breonna Taylor's home.

As Louisville police are now banned from carrying out house searches without first tapping, the state of Kentucky Senator Rand Paul has also proposed federal legislation that could ban such house searches across the country.
