Seattle police say traffic is backed up for blocks in downtown Seattle Wednesday afternoon because of an immigration protest and a Mariners game.
People protesting for immigration overhaul are holding a rally in the middle of the intersection at Second Avenue and Madison Street, causing a major traffic disturbance, police said.
In addition, a Mariners game scheduled for 7 p.m. has people pouring into the blocks surrounding Safeco Field.
