Bolivia clears anti-government roadblocks

Anti-government roadblocks that have isolated Bolivia's capital La Paz and other major cities are still being cleared, a day after President Rodrigo Paz declared a state of emergency that was later overwhelmingly ratified by parliament.

Also on Sunday, six people, including Bolivian Air Force officers, were killed in the crash of a light aircraft that had been conducting aerial patrols over a blockaded highway. The aircraft had been monitoring sections of the highway linking La Paz and the city of Cochabamba.

An investigative board has been activated to determine the causes of the incident, Bolivia's Air Force said.
