A man has died in Louisville, Kentucky, early on Monday after police, the National Guard and protesters exchanged gunfire, local officials are quoted as saying.
It happened as police and the National Guard were trying to disperse crowds.
Louisville Metro Police Department (LMPD) chief Steve Conrad told NBC’s local affiliate WAVE that one person was confirmed dead at the scene. No further details were immediately available.
Last week, a 19-year-old man was shot and killed during protests in Detroit, Michigan.
That shooting did not involve police, US media quoted officers as saying.
