The Latest: Elders brace for arrest for blocking summit road

Hawaii officials have closed a road leading to the summit of the state's tallest mountain, the site of an embattled giant telescope project. The road was officially closed Monday, but protesters who say they're protecting Mauna Kea from desecration had already blocked it. Hundreds gathered to protest the $1.4 billion Thirty Meter Telescope, hoping to stop construction convoys from delivering equipment to the top.
