A 45-year-old man occupied the top of the Frederick Douglass Memorial Bridge in Washington to protest a potential war on Iran, according to aljazeera.com.
Guido Reichstadter took his position atop the structure to draw attention to the escalating tensions. The occupation occurred in the nation's capital, targeting a major transit artery.
Al Jazeera reported on Reichstadter's presence on the bridge, providing a platform for his message. The outlet captured his statements directly from his position on the structure.
Protest against conflict
Reichstadter used the high-profile location to communicate his opposition to military action. While the source material does not detail the duration of the occupation, the protest focused specifically on the threat of war involving Iran.
