This comes after Breonna Taylor was shot in her own home in the middle of the night by police officers wearing civilian clothing.
According to Walker, who survived the rain of bullets, the cops entered the place he shared with his girlfriend without identifying themselves, despite him repeatedly asking them to do so from the other side of the door they were trying to force open.
Therefore, Walker proceeded to fire a warning shot at the officers he thought to be robbers or intruders.
The officers involved, however, insist that they did identify themselves.
Mattingly got shot in the leg and he claims to be from one of Walker’s warning shots.
This has not yet been proven and he could have just as easily been hit by one of the 32 bullets he and his colleagues proceeded to shoot, six of which hit and killed Breonna Taylor.
The cop is suing Walker now, claiming trauma and emotional distress at the hands of Walker who supposedly shot him in the leg.
