PC Sharon Beshenivsky (née Jagger; 14 January 1967 – 18 November 2005) was a West Yorkshire Police constable shot and killed by a criminal gang during a robbery in Bradford on 18 November 2005, becoming the 7th female police officer in Great Britain to be killed on duty. Her colleague, PC Teresa Millburn, was seriously injured in the same incident. Millburn had joined the force less than two years earlier; Beshenivsky had served only 9 months in the force at the time of her death. Closed-circuit television cameras tracked a car rushing from the scene and used an automatic number plate recognition system to trace its owners. This led to six suspects being arrested; three were later convicted of murder, robbery, and firearms offences; two of manslaughter, robbery, and firearms offences; and 1 of robbery. Another suspect was arrested in Pakistan more than 14 years later.
