Mayor Greg Fischer announced a $12 million settlement Tuesday afternoon with the family of Breonna Taylor, 26, a Black woman fatally shot by police in her apartment six months ago.
In addition to the largest settlement ever paid by Louisville police, the deal includes changes in the approval process and execution of search warrants, the hiring of a team of social workers to accompany police officers and a commitment to pursue increased drug and alcohol testing of officers involved in any shooting.
