As peaceful protests and civil unrest continue on Day 8 following the death of George Floyd, another round of curfews instituted by Los Angeles County officials and individual cities have been announced.
Here’s what we know about curfews for Wednesday, June 3, 2020.
After some confusion,* L.A. County officials have confirmed that Wednesday night's curfew goes into effect at 9 p.m. and lasts until 5 a.m. on Thursday, June 4. The L.A. Sheriff's Department, however, says it will not start enforcing the curfew until 10 p.m.
Either way, it's definitely a later curfew than we've seen in previous days.
Per the county, tonight's curfew DOES NOT apply to:
REMINDER: Other cities within L.A. County may institute curfews that start earlier.
*Around noon, officials sent an emergency alert saying the curfew started at 9 p.m. Then, at 3:18 p.m., officials sent another emergency alert saying the curfew started at 10 p.m. L.A. County clarified this (sort of) in response to our Tweet.

Beverly Hills officials have announced two different curfews: one for business districts beginning at 1 p.m. today, the other a citywide curfew in effect at 4 p.m. Both orders expire at 6 a.m. Thursday.
A full list of the business district areas can be found here.

Homeless people in Culver City are exempt, according to the new order. The city's bus service will be suspended at 8 p.m. and resume after 6 a.m. Thursday.
City Manager John Nachbar also announced that 25 members of the National Guard would be deployed in the city this afternoon to protect the Westfield Culver City Mall. He explained the reason this way:
"During each of the past several evenings, there have been up to 100 cars at a time circling the Westfield Culver City Mall with persons attempting to gain access to vandalize and loot. Using significant resources, CCPD and local law enforcement partners have been successful in fighting off these criminal attempts, including using methods such as using buses to block mall parking lot entrances... The National Guard will only be deployed at the mall. Their mission will be to protect the mall. How long they remain deployed there depends on the security situation at the mall."
