80 Protesters Face Charges for Blocking Bay Bridge in San Francisco

The San Francisco District Attorney's Office has announced that 80 protesters who blocked the Bay Bridge last month to call for a cease-fire in Gaza will face charges. The November 16 incident, which blocked all westbound lanes on the bridge for hours, disrupted traffic and required significant public resources to resolve. Charges include false imprisonment, refusing to comply with a police officer, unlawful public assembly, refusing to disperse, and obstruction of a public place. The protesters plan to hold a news conference to address the district attorney's decision.
