Trucker Convoys Rally along Capital Beltway Sunday

Story by: Fox 5 DC Digital Team

 Trucker convoys from across the U.S. arrived in the D.C. region Sunday. The group called the People’s Convoy circled the Capital Beltway throughout the day.

SKYFOX was over the scene of the rally for much of the day. Supporters of the convoy were spotted lining the interstate and along overpasses in several areas of the Beltway as the convoys drove through. Many people also reported hearing the blowing horns from the convoys throughout the D.C. region. 

Thousands of truckers began traveling this week toward the nation’s capital as part of the Convoy. They stopped in Hagerstown, Maryland Friday, and stayed there for 2 nights before bringing their protest closer to D.C. on Sunday.

FOX 5’s Jacqueline Matter said the truckers started rolling in around 5:30 p.m. Friday night.

Hundreds of people from the D.C. area are lined up along the roads to support them.
