⚠️ TRAFFIC ALERT! LA County: 5 FREEWAY CLOSURE! All lanes of the northbound 5 Freeway are closed south of Highway 138 near Gorman after about 1,000 gallons of asphalt spilled from a semi-truck tanker. California Highway Patrol responded to a call of a semi-truck with a tanker full of asphalt that had spilled into traffic lanes on northbound 5 south of State Route 138, south of Gorman in Los Angeles county. Traffic was being diverted to eastbound SR-138, then to Gorman Post Road to rejoin I-5. Caltrans was on the scene but it was unclear how long the lanes would be closed.

It was never about "justice" - it was always about appeasing the angry mob. This is not what America is suppose to look like.
