“#Protesters clash with LAPD during Breonna Taylor rally in Hollywood<\/strong>”<\/p>\n

Protesters marking the\u00a0anniversary of Breonna Taylor\u2019s death\u00a0clashed with cops in Hollywood late Saturday \u2014 with a wild video showing a police cruiser driving off with someone clinging on its hood.<\/p>\n

At least 200 people took to Hollywood and Vine late Saturday calling for justice for Taylor, who was fatally shot by police in her Louisville, Kentucky, in a botched raid one year ago, KABC said<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Good evening everyone! I\u2019ll follow up with lots of footage, but thought I\u2019d lead with this. I\u2019m OTG at a protest in Hollywood, one protestor ended up on a LAPD cruiser while it sped away. I have no updates on that protestor\u2019s safety. pic.twitter.com\/uKqyK8B46k<\/a><\/p>\n

At one point, a group of protesters dressed all in black \u2014 some holding umbrellas as smoke filled the air around them \u2014 were filmed blocking a line of at least six LAPD squad cars trying to get through.<\/p>\n

After one protester blocked the lead car\u2019s way, another came and banged on the hood \u2014 with both then climbing onto the hood, video shot by Sean Carmitchel <\/a>shows.<\/p>\n

The car then drove off, with one of the protesters managing to jump off but the other remaining on the hood as the cop car drove off, chased by a group of screaming onlookers.<\/p>\n

\u201cHoly s\u2013t!\u201d someone was heard shouting, along with repeated cries of, \u201cMedic! Medic! Medic! Medic!\u201d<\/p>\n

Carmitchel later said that the protester on the car was <\/a>not seriously injured. The Los Angeles Police Department\u2019s Operations Center told KABC it had few details about the incident.<\/p>\n

It came during a night of tense stand-offs with police in riot gear, the station said.<\/p>\n

Images also showed graffiti scrawled<\/a> around the area, including \u201cdie pigs\u201d and \u201cf\u2013k 12,\u201d a common anti-police message used during protests.<\/p>\n

Taylor\u2019s front door was breached by Louisville officers as part of a drug raid in the early morning hours of March 13, 2020. Her boyfriend, Kenneth Walker fired his gun once, saying later that he feared an intruder was entering the apartment.\u00a0<\/p>\n

One officer was struck, and he and two other officers fired 32 shots into the apartment, striking Taylor five times.<\/p>\n

A grand jury indicted one officer on wanton endangerment charges in September for shooting into a neighbor\u2019s apartment, but no officers were charged in connection with Taylor\u2019s death.<\/p>\n

A Kentucky judge last week signed an order permanently closing a criminal case against Walker for firing at the officer.<\/p>\n

Walker filed a federal lawsuit against the Louisville Metro Police Department on Friday, alleging his constitutional rights were violated during the botched raid.<\/p>\n
