Soldiers with machine guns patrolled the streets of Jos in the back of pickup trucks Wednesday, following days of sectarian violence in central Nigeria that killed more than 200 people, The Associated Press reported. Two charred bodies were visible at an army check point and a fresh corpse lay on the side of the road leading into Jos. A nearby mosque still smoldered, its minarets blackened by fires. Authorities have imposed a 24-hour curfew in Jos.
