Jamaicans schoked and furious following the brutal assault of a nurse, captured in a disturbing video that has been circulating widely on social media. The footage shows a male attacker violently confronting the woman before stamping on her head, seemingly oblivious to the cries of onlookers pleading for him to stop.
Reports suggest the incident stemmed from a road rage dispute, yet nothing justifies the sheer lack of remorse and empathy displayed. The woman, visibly shaken, can be heard desperately asking, "What have I done to you?" as the assailant continues his merciless attack. In another clip, the man can be seen holding what appears to be a gun.

The Jamaican police have since launched an investigation, urging the public to assist in identifying the perpetrator. Meanwhile, healthcare workers and women's rights activists have taken to social media to voice their outrage, calling for immediate action and stronger protections for those working on the frontline.
This horrific act of violence has reignited discussions around voilence against women and the increasing dangers faced by nurses and other essential workers.
