A raging bush fire in Salisbury late this evening, seemed only to add to an already volatile situation in that community which emanated from a police vs protesters confrontation earlier in the day.
The police eventually removed a roadblock which was set up by the protesters and according to reports, the fire is now under control but the situation remains tense as the police continue to watch the road.

Looks like the Police stimulated the protesters with anger when they arrived with guns and riot gear.
Means that the Police does not have crowd control tatics.
Look at how the first response in Baltimore situation come on. there was no weapons in the first instance, they used proper response.
Dominica Police did not use the same. I need to say that the Police force needs purging and retraining with no reservation ,
TIME WILL TELL AND THE TIME WILL BE SOON,
Be careful what you ask for. Maybe next time might not be the same.
this particular bush fire aint fool me non (staged)
its dry season lots of bush fire!!!! nothing dramatic!! DNO again u are bias making things seem like its people who did it!!
glad that the road is cleared now!
Shame on the people of Salsbury you known imagine they are protesting about neglect and they are destroying their own environment. The bush fire they started should destroy their homes God forbid that no one dies or get injured
Stupid ignorant set of people was Rome built in a day.
if you have evidence that the fire was started deliberately, then go to the police smart mouth.
I don’t expect that Rome was built in a day. Nor should you expect that the roads of Salisbury should take over 15 years to be repaired while roads in better condition than ours are being refurbished all over he country. You talking fouchette!!
