JAMAICA Defence Force soldiers used a bulldozer and trucks to clear blockages erected at various points on the busy thoroughfare of Red Hills Road this morning.
The road was blocked at various points between the Price Mart supermarket and the Emmanuel Gospel Assembly by thugs who have joined in the fight against security forces in defence of reputed Tivoli Gardens don, Christopher 'Dudus' Coke.
Roadblocks were also erected near the Sandy Gully Ford near a community known as 'Ackee Walk'. There the Observer roving team spotted women extorting money from motorists in order to allow them passage.
