The city of Louisville will pay millions of dollars to the mother of Breonna Taylor and reform police practices as part of a lawsuit settlement, months after Ms Taylor’s killing by police thrust the black woman’s name to the forefront of a national reckoning on race.

A source told the Associated Press it would be the largest sum paid by the city for a police misconduct case.
