Photo: Rushing a rasta man

Supporters of the Jamaica Labour Party chastise this Rastafarian man who stopped his motor vehicle outside a polling station in St Catherine Central to urge them not to vote for any politician. The women did not approve of the message and proceeded to tear up a banner that was inside the back of the vehicle. Police later intervened and separated the disputing parties.
