One police officer has been indicted on criminal charges over the shooting of an unarmed black woman in the US. Breonna Taylor, 26, a hospital emergency room technician, was shot multiple times by police on March 13.

Taylor, 26, was gunned down in front of her boyfriend after police in Louisville, Kentucky, forced their way into her apartment with a so-called "no knock" warrant.

The warrant had been issued in relations to a drugs investigation but no narcotics were found in Ms Taylor's home. Former detective Brett Hankison has been charged with three counts of wanton endangerment - a charge that carries a penalty of just 1 to 5 years in prison.
