.@louisvillemayor addressing the Breonna Taylor case now.
"I do not know what the decision from the AG will be. What is important is that all the facts come out on what occurred on the night of Breonna Taylor's death."
"No matter what Attorney General Cameron announces, I urge everyone to commit once again to a peaceful, lawful response like we've seen for the majority of the past four months." @louisvillemayor
Curfew announced from 9 p.m. to 6:30 p.m. in Louisville in response to announcement in Breonna Taylor case.
The curfew has been set for 72 hours.
@louisvillemayor asks people to protest during the day and not at night, as violence that's taken place has predominantly occurred at night.
Interim Chief Robert Schroeder is laying out the actions LMPD has put in place in advance of Cameron's announcement, including limiting traffic downtown and canceling vacation requests for officers.
"I know for many these steps have been causing inconvenience. But given some of the crowd sizes we saw in the early days and what we have seen nationally at protests in other cities, we must take these steps out of an abundance of caution," Schroeder said
Cameron's announcement is expected at 1:30 p.m. today, following a grand jury presentation at 1:15.
