Jackson motorcade reaches LA memorial service site

LOS ANGELES — Michael Jackson’s golden casket has arrived at Staples Center in downtown Los Angeles for a public memorial service.

A hearse carried the flower-draped casket in a motorcade from a private service earlier Tuesday at a cemetery hall in the Hollywood Hills.

A law enforcement escort shut down sections of freeways to speed the motorcade through Los Angeles traffic.
