France24 - Kingston under state of emergency amid gang warfare: "Jamaican authorities clamped Kingston under a state of emergency and urged people to leave the city's roughest neighborhoods, as police clashed with armed gangs over the possible extradition of a drug suspect to the United States.
A police officer and a civilian were wounded by gunfire in street clashes and three police stations came under attack in the city, police said. One police station was set ablaze after police abandoned it having run out of bullets, they added.
Police charged that gunmen from various communities across this Caribbean country of 2.8 million had joined forces with criminal elements in Tivoli Gardens in a bid to protect reputed gang leader, Christopher 'Dudus' Coke."
