Felony charge against Texans' Stills dropped
A prosecutor has dropped a felony charge against Houston Texans receiver Kenny Stills and others who gathered outside the home of Kentucky's attorney general to demand action against the police officers involved in the death of Breonna Taylor, Dylan Lovan of The Associated Press reports.
Jefferson County Attorney Mike O'Connell said Louisville Police had probable cause for issuing a felony charge of intimidating a participant in a legal process to 87 protesters Tuesday. Police said some in attendance threatened to burn down the attorney general's house.
"In the interest of justice and the promotion of the free exchange of ideas, we will dismiss that charge," O'Connell said.
Stills was arrested at the protest and reportedly released Wednesday morning.
