Dawnnn Jaffier, 26, lost her life on Saturday morning while taking part in Dorchester’s annual Caribbean Carnival. According to Boston Police, Dawnn was a victim of a stray bullet fired by a ruthless person whose bullet was meant for another target.

In just a few seconds, an innocent life with so much to give to the world lost her life. Fighting back the tears, her father said at a press conference on Saturday ” I’m going to have to bury my angel

Dawnn like many people who attend this event was there to celebrate the best of the Caribbean. Unfortunately, gunfire has become apart of Caribbean carnival with innocent people caught in the crossfire. Dawnn Jaffier was unfortunately one of those innocent victims.
