Northbound lanes of the San Diego Freeway have been closed north of Sherman Way because of protesting students on the freeway.

An emailer monitoring police radios also says that the LAPD has been put on tactical alert across the Valley due to fights in the Van Nuys Civic Center.
Update: Sigalert cancelled at 12:20 and all lanes are now open.
