| Subject: Louisville Cops Fire Pepper Balls at News Crew Covering Protests on Live TV (Video) Sat May 30, 2020 1:58 am | |
| During a live broadcast on Friday night, a news crew covering protests in Louisville, Kentucky was fired upon by police who used guns that shot pepper balls. The crew, reporter Kaitlin Rust and two camera operators for NBC affiliate WAVE in Louisville, were broadcasting from the scene of a protest inspired by Breonna Taylor, a Louisville EMT who in March was killed in her own home by police who went to the wrong address while executing a warrant, and George Floyd, a Minneapolis man who was killed by a police officer on Memorial day. In the clip, Rust is wearing a bright safety vest and is clearly identified as a journalist. As she explains to the news anchors what she’s seeing on the ground, the camera turns away from Rust and toward a line of police officers, at which point Rust can be heard screaming in pain just off camera. “I’m getting shot, I’m getting…” Rust says, still off camera.
