Jamaican police say at least 73 people have been killed in four days of fighting between police and gunmen, as authorities continue their search for an alleged drug lord.

Of these, 70 are civilians, including a number of suspected gunmen or gunwomen, and three are security personnel.

The information minister said it was unknown whether the chief target of the operation, Christopher "Dudus" Coke, was still in the country.

In the country's capital, Kingston, security forces have been going from house to house in Mr Coke's Trivoli Gardens district an attempt to find him.
