Protesters at a Black Lives Matter rally in City Heights made their way on the Interstate 15 freeway Friday night.

Over 100 people gathered outside the City Heights Performance Annex on Fairmount Avenue.

They eventually began marching and some protesters marched onto the Interstate 15 freeway.

All southbound lanes of the freeway were closed at University Avenue while police worked to clear the roadway of pedestrians.

As of 9:25 p.m. all lanes of the I-15 and on and off-ramps were reopened to traffic.

No word yet if San Diego police have made any arrests.
