Democratic Mayor Karen Bass of Los Angeles Tuesday evening announced a curfew of 8 p.m. to 6 a.m. Pacific Daylight Time for parts of the city after five days of rioting.
President Donald Trump ordered 700 Marines to back up the deployment of federalized National Guard troops Monday as the riots continued into their fifth day following a Friday raid by United States Immigration and Customs Enforcement at a Los Angeles-area Home Depot. During a CNN appearance, Bass said she was discussing a potential curfew with Los Angeles Police Department Chief Jim McDonnell.

“We will be talking about a curfew shortly, and I think that that will assist,” Bass told CNN host Erin Burnett earlier Tuesday.
“I’m meeting with the chief of police,” Bass added. “We’ve been working on it all day, and we should be prepared one way or another to make an announcement before nightfall, and it would go into effect.”
