THE STREETS of Kingston for a second day experienced running gunbattles that killed at least 30 people, some of them children as soldiers tried to capture alleged druglord Christopher Coke. Coke, 41, has been indicted by the feds in Manhattan for running a vast drug racket that ran crack into New York and guns back to Jamaica. His whereabouts remain a mystery since his capital city became a war zone, with terrified civilians and innocent people trapped inside their homes.
Among the dead were a 7-year-old boy, a 16-year-old high school student and a church deacon. Several bodies were reportedly being taken to the Kingston Public Hospital. More than 200 were arrested and large numbers of arms seized, as per the police.
The Kingston slums began to simmer Friday when the government, which had long protected Coke, abruptly announced it would enforce an extradition order sending Coke to Manhattan for trial. Coke used to distribute food, money and help the poor section of people. However the same Coke is a dangerous drug kingpin to the feds. Last year, Coke was charged with running the Shower Posse drug cartel that conspired to run cocaine, pot and guns between Jamaica and New York starting in 1994.
