Shout of joy as Gbagbo fall

Shouts of joy erupted in parts of Abidjan on Monday as news of the arrest of Laurent Gbagbo spread through Ivory Coast's main city, where many had been trapped in their homes during 10 days of heavy fighting. But some warned the country's deep crisis was not over and that armed supporters of the former president were still at large.

Residents drove their cars around, hooting in jubilation. In Koumassi, a district in the south of Abidjan, Mariam Cisse said residents were on the
streets, chanting: "Gbagbo is gone. Gbagbo is gone."

"It is unbelievable what is going on here. People are running around in every direction and screaming that they are finally free," said Ali Toure in Abobo, a neighbourhood dominated by supporters of Gbagbo's presidential rival Alassane Ouattara and scarred by violence.
