Supporters of Accused WikiLeaks Source Set to March at 1 p.m.

More than a hundred at Fort Meade are set to march down an eastbound lane of Route 175 around 1 p.m. Saturday to show their support of the alleged WikiLeaks source. 

Manning, an Army intelligence officer, is to the website WikiLeaks. He appeared at Fort Meade on Friday for a preliminary Article 32 hearing, designed to determine whether he will face a court martial.

The traffic light at Reece Road and Route 175 was flashing yellow and traffic moved slowly as officers directed the large number of vehicles.

More than a dozen police cars lined Route 175 in addition to a number of bicycle police. Orange cones isolated the right lane of eastbound Route 175 all the way to Blue Water Boulevard, where the protesters plan to conclude their march. 

Traffic should continue to be congested as the protesters take to the street. Cars on Route 175 coming from the Jessup area spent several minutes waiting their turn before officers let them pass the Bradley Manning supporters.
