Wow, they almost hit the VP. (or at least, the CHP detail assigned to him).
(I guess friendly fire as in unintentional, vs. fragged which is intenational)

Hippy SteveThe #I5Closure for the #BattleOfCampPendleton is Narci-terrorism
Looks like CHP is checking for debris from what must have been a bunch of detonations/etc. at Pendleton. 10/18/25 1416PT #Pendleton #I5Closure #shutdown #traffic #SanDiego

ABC7: 5 Fwy shut down again for event involving live ammunition at Camp Pendleton

Apparently "Marine Corp Vehicles Approaching Rest Area Now" (as of 1:15pm PT) - they stopped all traffic at 12:36pm again.
Looks like quite a confusion about what is or isn't closing (per CHP log) now on the I-5....
Sounds like they are going to run a traffic break INSTEAD of closing the freeway.
"Oct 18 2025 11:51AM [2] 113-C THE FULL FWY CLOSURE WILL BE LIFTED ON BOTH NB/SB SIDES OF THE 5 FWY - OCEANSIDE WILL HANDLE BRKS WHEN DEMONSTRATION OCCURS - ALL CAPO UNITS COPY"
