Eleven people were arrested Friday after attempting to block entry to Travis Air Force Base during an anti-war protest.
According to Fairfield Police Department officials, a group of about 20 people gathered near the intersection of Air Base Parkway and Parker Road at approximately 6 a.m. that morning.
“The group initially stayed on the shoulder and center median while bringing attention to their cause,” read a release issued by the department. “Just after 7 a.m., members of the group entered the crosswalk across Air Base Parkway and remained there, blocking traffic attempting to enter the main gate of the base.”
At that time, officials said additional group members also blocked the hospital gate entrance to the base.
