Curfew Ordered for Downtown LA to Restrain Violent Protests, Vandalism
- On Tuesday, Los Angeles Mayor Karen Bass implemented a nighttime curfew covering much of the downtown area from 8 p.m. to 6 a.m. to address ongoing protests and associated violence.
- The curfew followed four days of protests triggered by immigration raids that caused unrest, vandalism, and looting in a roughly 1-square-mile area.
- Authorities arrested dozens of protesters Tuesday evening, increasing total detentions to at least 378 since the protests began on Friday.

- The curfew aims to restore order and is expected to last several days, affecting fewer than 100,000 residents within the designated downtown area.
