(CNN) Activists demanding justice for the police killing of Breonna Taylor protested Saturday near the 146th Kentucky Derby in Louisville, Kentucky. Louisville Metro Police Department officers fatally shot Taylor on March 13 while executing a "no-knock" search warrant at her apartment. Ahead of the Kentucky Derby, demonstrators clashed over recent looting and destruction in the city and the police shooting death of Breonna Taylor. "We know there are some who disagree with our decision to run the Kentucky Derby this year," racetrack officials' statement asserts. At least three people were arrested Saturday in relation to the protests, Louisville Metro Police Department Assistant Chief LaVita Chavous said at a news conference.
