The patrol, made up of ten LAVs and an M998 High-Mobility Multipurpose Wheeled Vehicle (HMMWV) from Company B., 2nd Light Armored Infantry Battalion, was forced to change its route when Panamanian Defense Force (PDF) soldiers refused to disperse a crowd of supporters of GEN. Manuel Noriega that had blocked the road through the town of La Chorrera
