ROSEVILLE, Calif. (AP) — More than two dozen people were arrested in protests at California Wal-Mart stores during the Black Friday shopping surge.
Police in Roseville, northeast of Sacramento, arrested 15 people following a protest at a Wal-Mart there, police said. The protesters were taken into custody for failing to disperse when they blocked an intersection in the Placer County city, police Sgt. Jeff Kool said.
The protesters had marched about a half mile to the intersection following a demonstration that included about 100 people protesting Wal-Mart's wages and labor practices, The Sacramento Bee reported.
It was one of many similar protests across the country Friday.
