Twelve adults and two minors will face a judge Thursday after disrupting traffic in protest of the Portland police.

A group of about 30 people gathered in Pioneer Courthouse Square on Wednesday afternoon. The group, who called for the dismissal of Portland Police Chief Mike Marshman, later stepped into the intersection of Southwest Yamhill and Sixth Avenue, blocking cars, buses and a MAX train.

Some of the group then boarded a MAX train to the Steel Bridge and walked across slowing traffic across the river. Marchers then walked on Northeast Martin Luther King Jr. Boulevard delaying more traffic.

Each of the people arrested -- 12 adults and two 17-year-olds -- received traffic citations for improper position on a highway, Portland police said in a news release. Police said each of the adults were jailed, and the minors were arrested and later released.

All of the adults face second-degree disorderly conduct charges, and three of them face interfering with public transportation charges. One also has a parole violation, police said.
