Protesters angered by a Kentucky grand jury's decision not to bring charges against the Louisville police officers who shot and killed Taylor while serving a warrant in March spoke and chanted for second-straight night about a legal system they say is in need of reform.
Demonstrators listened to several speakers, including attorney and community activist Stacy Shaw, before dispersing after 8 p.m.
No arrests were made Thursday, unlike Wednesday night when 5 people were arrested for trespassing at KCPD Headquarters.
Protesters plan to protest again at 6 p.m. on Friday at KCPD Headquarters.
