The video does not show the vehicles taking part in the takeover but burnout marks can be seen across nearly all lanes of traffic.

Drivers who were unable to move because of the incident could be heard honking their disapproval.

California Highway Patrol officers did show up at the scene and apparently pursued several vehicles, according to stringer news service OnScene.TV.

There was no word on whether any arrests were made.
