Protesters shut down I-93 Northbound at East Milton Square and I-93 Southbound in the Medford-Somerville area during the Thursday morning commute causing major traffic backups, according to Massachusetts State police.
State Police reported that 17 people from the Medford protest were under arrest and being processed.
The protest was organized by the Boston contingent of the group Black Lives Matter, according to an Associated Press report.
In a statement posted Thursday morning on the group’s Facebook page, the protest was held “to ‘disrupt business as usual’ and protest police and state violence against Black people.”
The protesters have been removed from the Medford scene, according to State police.
In Milton, I-93 Northbound at East Milton Square Road was again closed while police removed protesters from the lanes.
Here are photos from the scene in Milton, where State police reported that protesters attached themselves to 1,200-pound barrels . . .

The left will have another flapjack to martyr and worship. They will cry out for justice and the immediate imprisonment of the driver. How dear he run her over when she dove under his wheels without warning?
“Let them pick up the trash along I-93.”
______________________________________________
They ARE the trash along I-93!
Unlink the people on either end. If they resist, Tase them, pepper spray them, then tase them again.
Drag the whole line off the road, let them sit there for three days with no food or water, exposed to the elements, chained together in their barrels, while motorists can drive by.
Let their stomachs empty and their adult diapers fill up.
I am done with these people. I understand civil disobedience, but this is not that.
Poor little rich kids were the ones doing the protesting... living in the basement of Momsie mansion... the first vide’s funny. Reporters finally went out to see who the protesters REALLY were.
