Protesters in Austin, Texas, took over part of I-35. They carried banners about George Floyd and Mike Ramos, who was shot and killed by police in Austin, CBS affiliate KEYE reports.

Governor Greg Abbott sent 1,500 Texas Department of Public Safety officers to major cities in the state on Saturday, including Austin, to help local police departments “ensure peaceful protest,” according to a statement posted on Twitter.
