Middle East spills over into Westwood

Google Maps must have taken this photo of the Federal Building in Westwood on Wilshire Blvd. at 5 am in the morning, since there is no traffic visible.

In any event, the current Israeli-Palestinian conflict has produced demonstrations on both sides at that building with occasional incidents as recently as yesterday.  See http://dailybruin.com/2014/08/11/protest-at-federal-building-leads-to-confrontation-between-crowds/

There doesn't seem to be any traffic alert system before the fact in place although this is a major route for commuting to and from UCLA.  Only when something happens is there an alert.  Be advised.
