None

Police clashed with gunmen in a Kingston slum for the second straight day on Monday, after at least three people were killed in violence linked to an alleged Jamaican drug lord who faces extradition to the United States.

 

The firefights came a day after the government declared a state of emergency in volatile sections of the capital as Prime Minister Bruce Golding vowed "strong and decisive action" to restore order. (Reuters)
