Jamaica Braced for Bloodshed Over Drug Kingpin's Extradition

Jamaica Braced for Bloodshed Over Drug Kingpin's Extradition:
Jamaica has caved to US pressure to extradite alleged drug kingpin Christopher 'Dudus' Coke to New York, but it'll have to drag him out of his stronghold in the capital to do so. Gunmen, who have set up barricades blocking all entrances to Kingston's Tivoli Gardens neighborhood and vowed to defend the man they call 'the president,' opened fire on soldiers in the area yesterday and the city is braced for a wave of violence, the Jamaica Gleaner reports.
