Rioting in Maputo

Rioting in Maputo broke out over the rising cost of public transportation.  Rodger was actually caught in the middle of it all and trapped for several hours trying to get home.   He ended up being escorted by local police as they fired live ammunition into air and rioters were throwing rocks at the truck.   The truck only suffered on big hit on the side door.   He eventually had to abandon the car and walk all the way home.   This shot was taken just outside our front gate and the street was on fire,  people were beaten and everything was in total chaos.   Praise the Lord for his protection and discernment in the midst of obvious danger.
