The city of Los Angeles has not yet announced a city-specific curfew but will be expected to follow the county’s curfew.
The curfews are in response to ongoing vandalism and looting that has occurred amid protests sparked by the killing of George Floyd. Though many protests have been peaceful, police have frequently clashed — violently — with protesters and have made hundreds of arrests.
