LOUISVILLE, Ky. (AP) - A Kentucky man has been charged in connection to the death of a man who had been active in the protests over the police killing of Breonna Taylor.
Ashton Nally, 20, of Vine Grove, was charged Sunday in Madisonville with armed robbery of a vehicle, the FBI told news outlets.
Travis Nagdy, 21, was fatally shot Nov. 23 during a carjacking in Louisville.
Nally could face life in prison or the death penalty if convicted of the federal statute because a death resulted. No one has been charged with Nagdy’s death.
Online jail records did not indicate whether Nally is represented by an attorney who could comment on his behalf.
Nagdy was often seen leading protest marches with a megaphone to draw attention to Taylor’s death and call for police reform.
