Do they know something that you don’t & know that it will cause mass anger: Louisville on lockdown: Police declare a state of emergency and board up buildings ahead of Kentucky AG’s decision on whether officers involved in Breonna Taylor’s shooting death will be charged

Interim Chief of Police Robert Schroeder said the declaration will remain in effect ‘until further notice’ in a memo to the entire Louisville Metro Police Department on Monday. City staff set to work putting up barricades in downtown Louisville and boarding up police buildings and courthouses (left) in anticipation for protests that may erupt in the wake of the decision from Kentucky Attorney General Daniel Cameron (top right). In a statement released publicly after Schroeder’s internal memo, Sgt Lamont Washington said officers’ off-day and vacation requests have been cancelled. Washington noted that Cameron has said there is no timetable for his announcement, but the extensive police department preparations suggest that it is coming soon.
