Latoya Bulgin

Latoya Bulgin, a 45-year-old Jamaican woman, became the subject of national attention after being fatally shot by a police officer on Sunday in Granville, St. James. The incident occurred during a protest, which itself was reportedly sparked by a previous police shooting. CCTV footage captured the moment a police officer fired at a vehicle, striking Bulgin who was reportedly driving it. The shooting has sent shockwaves across Jamaica and led to violent protests. In response to the incident, Constable Andrew Wilson has been charged with murder in connection with Bulgin's death.
