Kentucky's attorney general is asking a court to delay the release of secret grand jury proceedings in Breonna Taylor's killing by police just as audio recordings were set to be made public.

Attorney General Daniel Cameron's office filed a motion Wednesday asking for a week delay to the release so officials could redact names and personal information from the recording.

A court in Louisville was expected to release the audio recordings on Wednesday.

Meanwhile, one of two Louisville police officers shot during protests last week held a news conference calling for peace and unity between law enforcement, protesters and other residents.

Maj. Aubrey Gregory returned to light duty this week after being shot in the hip.
