Pro-Armenian protesters blocked the 101 Freeway near Glendale Avenue Tuesday night.
Pro-Armenian protesters used dozens of cars to block most of the 101 Freeway near Glendale Avenue Tuesday night.
The protesters only allowed one lane of cars to pass through the major thoroughfare as they waved Armenian flags and posted a sign asking for President Joe Biden not to ignore them. The California Highway Patrol issued a SigAlert for the freeway as traffic backed up for miles. Last month, pro-Armenian protesters blocked all lanes of SR-134 in Glendale In that incident, officers ordered the demonstrators to disperse but the protesters continued to block the freeway for hours.
This time, officers seemed to be more aggressive, claiming they were sending tow trucks to move the protesters from the highway.
