More than 200 protesters blocked traffic on Interstate 5 in Portland, Oregon, on Wednesday morning, in order to voice their dissatisfaction with the results of the U.S. presidential election.
The group, comprised mostly of Portland State University students, gathered on the Interstate around 4:30 a.m.
Protesters shouted anti-Trump chants as they blocked traffic in both direction.
KATU News reported that the group first gathered on the Hawthorne Bridge, before making their way onto the interstate.
Anti-Trump protesters held a die-in at the Hawthorne Bridge before moving onto Interstate 5, where they have jumped the barrier and are blocking traffic.
One protester was struck by a vehicle that tried to make it through the human barrier. He was not seriously injured.
