A mother of shooting victim pleading for justice
SUMMARY: Tammy Coyt is advocating for justice after her 21-year-old daughter was shot multiple times following a dispute at Kemistry Lounge in Jackson. The altercation escalated outside at Jayne Avenue Park, where the shooting occurred. Tammy claims her daughter identified the shooter at the hospital and questions the actions of a security guard who allegedly followed them. Despite the presence of security cameras, police say footage is too blurry to identify the suspect. Councilman Kenneth Stokes emphasizes the need for crime prevention strategies, noting Jackson’s alarming homicide rate of 84 this year, with no arrests made in this case yet.
