OAKLAND -- After a night of confrontations with police and dozens of arrests in downtown Oakland, Occupy protesters were back at the Port of Oakland this morning, attempting to block trucks from entering.
The scene was tense earlier at the port entrance at Adeline and 3rd streets, where truckers have faced off with about a dozen protesters who erected a chain-link fence across four lanes of traffic and reinforced it with Dumpsters to keep truckers and port employees out.
One driver ran through the blockade and said he would run down the protesters. In response, a female protester yelled "You are trying to hurt us over your job? For money? Really?"
Another driver got out of his truck and confronted the
protesters. One of the female protesters told him, "Don't touch me or I'm going to call the police."
