In view of the more than tense situation last Friday, it was still very difficult to obtain information from the authorities. It is also complicated to make a traffic report, as the gendarmes clear roads, other portions are blocked.
The tension was still very high on Friday at Sandy-Ground, as well as in Quartier d'Orléans, Grand-Case and Agrément, which are still the most delicate points.
During the day on Thursday, a gendarme was slightly injured by the throwing of a stone. Contrary to a rumor circulating on social networks, "no soldier was wounded by gunshot," assures the prosecutor of Basse-Terre.
Independently of this indicent, two arrests were made; they are two miners who could be involved in projectile throwing on another site.
The number of gendarmes deployed on the ground has not been communicated.
However, twenty reinforcements were to arrive Friday morning from Guadeloupe.
