Senatobia Police Department

The Senatobia Police Department is currently under scrutiny following a fatal shooting incident on June 14th, where an officer discharged their weapon at a vehicle. This event resulted in the death of a one-year-old boy, Kohen Wiley, who was a passenger in the car. Another individual in the vehicle was also wounded. The incident occurred while officers were responding to a shoplifting call. In the aftermath, the department has faced public outcry and protests. Approximately 100 people gathered outside a local Walmart to demand the release of footage related to the incident. During a previous protest at the same location, officers reportedly used tear gas to disperse the crowd. The department's actions are now the subject of intense public attention and calls for transparency.
