(Jamaica Observer) MONTEGO BAY, St James — A popular Montego Bay mortician was early Monday morning shot dead in her Bogue Village community while leaving a party which was still in full swing.
The victim, 31-year-old Chrissy Vaughan, was also a part-time lecturer at Montego Bay Community College. Police said the shooting took place about 2:00 am when Vaughan drove off following an altercation with people outside the party venue. One person from the group, police said, pulled out a handgun and shot the mortician in the head. She lost control of the vehicle and slammed into an embankment.
Police, who found Vaughan slumped over the steering wheel of her car, took her to Cornwall Regional Hospital, where she was pronounced dead.
