The Louisville police officer who used a battering ram to smash through Breonna Taylor's front door testified in federal court Thursday that the gunshots that went off shortly after were the “loudest I've ever heard.”
Police gunfire killed Taylor, a Black 26-year-old medical technician, who had been roused from her bed moments earlier when officers showed up to serve a warrant in 2020. Taylor's boyfriend fired a shot once the door was knocked down by Detective Mike Nobles.
