There have been no street protests or anything that would disrupt traffic.

ÃÛÌÒÊÓÆµapp’s Kristi King reports about 70 people were in McPherson Square by 8 a.m. The group plans several events throughout the day.

an event at 7 a.m. called “Storm K Street,” and another event starting at 11:30 a.m. called “Shut Down K Street.”

Both events call for protesters at a number of businesses, lobbying groups, banks and nongovernmental organizations.

A pamphlet describing the event on the group’s Facebook page Saturday marks “major traffic” arteries at locations such as Washington Circle, Dupont Circle, Logan Circle and Mount Vernon Square.
