Curfew in Downtown Los Angeles comes to an end after a week

  • Los Angeles Mayor Karen Bass has lifted the curfew imposed on downtown Los Angeles following protests against President Trump’s immigration policies.
  • The curfew was initially implemented on June 10 in response to clashes between protestors and police.
  • Bass stated the curfew was successful in preventing crime and protecting businesses, residents, and restaurants from vandalism.
  • The curfew hours were reduced on Monday after a decrease in arrests during evening demonstrations and a decline in violence.
  • Trump ordered the deployment of National Guard troops and Marines to Los Angeles and instructed federal immigration officials to prioritize deportations from cities run by Democrats.
