As of 5:40 p.m. the eastbound HOV lane was open on the freeway, but the remaining eastbound lanes were closed, according to the California Highway Patrol.

Young’s recent issues began on Sept. 12, when he got into an argument with a motorist in the HOV lane on the 405 Freeway, records show.

They took the next off-ramp and circled back, slowing to about 30 mph in the HOV lane with the car’s hazard lights on.

Only the left northbound HOV lane, south of 272nd Street, was open as of 12:30 p.m., causing traffic to back up about two miles, the Washington Department of Transportation said.

Kevin Watt told local CBS affiliate KPHO-TV that once he arrived, the bull “was just standing in the HOV lane staring at me. I had my sirens going, everything I could to scare him off the roadway, but he seemed like he wanted to take me on. He kind of dipped his head and made it seem like he wanted to challenge me.”
