In a tragic turn of events, Constable Ezroy Boothe, a police officer from St Elizabeth, Jamaica, has passed away following a severe motorcycle accident. The incident occurred on Friday evening along the Lacovia main road, where Boothe lost control of his private motorbike and collided with a pole. He sustained critical injuries, including multiple fractures to both legs, internal damage, and significant blood loss. Boothe was immediately rushed to Black River Hospital, where he remained in critical condition until his death on Monday. Superintendent Coleridge Minto, head of the St Elizabeth police, had earlier appealed to the public for blood donations to aid Boothe’s recovery. Plans were also underway to transfer him to another medical facility for advanced treatment. The Jamaica Constabulary Force has expressed deep sorrow over the loss of one of their own, highlighting the dangers faced by law enforcement officers in the line of duty.
