LOUISVILLE, Ky. (AP) — A lawsuit filed against the city of Louisville by the neighbors of Breonna Taylor who had police bullets fly into their apartment has an interesting twist. The neighbors are asking a judge to move their lawsuit out of Louisville because “fatigue” over the Taylor case could sway a jury in favor of the police.

The two had testified against Hankison.
