L.A. immigration raids—what to know about the ongoing protests and curfew


ICE) raids in Los Angeles, yesterday evening the city’s mayor, Karen Bass, issued an overnight curfew for Downtown L.A., stretching from the 110 and 10 Freeways to the point where the 5 and 110 Freeways merge. She made sure to point out, though, that the curfew only affects one square mile—a very small area of the 502 square miles that make up Los Angeles—because the city is not the “war zone” it’s being made out to be. According to LAPD Chief of Police Jim McDonnell, “If you are within the designated curfew zone between the hours of 8pm and 6am and are not exempt under the order, you are subject to arrest.” Exceptions will be made only for law enforcement, emergency and medical personnel, DTLA residents, people commuting to and from work and credentialed media representatives.
