Dozens of protesters against the grand jury decision in Ferguson are heading to the Williamsburg Bridge that connects Manhattan and Brooklyn on Tuesday night.
Preliminary reports at around 8:25 p.m. ET said that they’re heading there. Police shut down the bridge preemptively as the protesters approached.
Protesters in NYC attempted to shut off the Lincoln Tunnel earlier in the night.
Some also tried to close down FDR Drive.
