Berkeley, CA Protesters blocking Interstate 80 and Amtrak

Cops are clearing the interstate, but protesters are getting around them.

They've also stopped Amtrak and BART in the East Bay

Link to coverage: http://abc7news.com/live/

UPDATE: Berkeley BART is back online.

I just watched protesters walking down both sides of the Interstate heading South past Emeryville.

Not sure if they are just going to Oakland or making a run at the new Bay Bridge,
