June 3 curfew starts at 9 p.m. in Antelope Valley

by The AV Times Staff • June 3, 2020

LANCASTER – The Antelope Valley and other parts of Los Angeles County that haven’t set their own earlier curfews will be under a curfew that runs from 9 p.m. tonight, June 3, through 5 a.m. Thursday, June 4.

This is the fourth night of a countywide curfew ordered to protect public safety.

“Tonight’s curfew will start later than the curfew in previous nights as the county assesses public safety needs on a daily basis. Residents, unless otherwise noted, are asked to stay in their home during the curfew,” according to a news release from Los Angeles County.

The countywide curfew does not apply to the following: peace officers; firefighters; National Guard or other military personnel deployed to the area; emergency medical services personnel; individuals traveling to and from work; individuals working on a public work of improvement construction project; credentialed media representatives involved in news gathering; people experiencing homelessness and without access to a viable shelter; and individuals seeking medical treatment.

The county curfew applies to every municipality in Los Angeles County, but cities can implement stricter curfews based on their local needs.

    Hate to break it to ya but the police shootings will still continue. Until the 13% changes their behavior and learns how to behave and stop commiting crimes its not going to change . Not many businesses open so why would you be out late. Unless coming home from work.

    Protest at Lancaster City Hall on Saturday June 6 at 4 pm.

      Great idea….

      Protest in front of City Hall on a day and at a time during which there is no one is at City Hall. That ought to get the message across to city leaders.

      Just goes to show that you have no plan and you have no common purpose or goal. Just wing it, and jf it blows up in your faces, blame it on an unfair system.

        Maybe the City Leaders can break away from their beach houses in Laguna and support the people. Of course. When you have a history of sending out racist hit maulers calling an African American veteran a gang candidate, and you have declared war on Section 8, maybe staying at the beach house would make for a better time.

          What are you even talking about? What veteran? What war on section 8? Last I checked section 8 is everywhere in Palmdale now

          This is a City Council that has appointed every minority council person that has ever served in Lancaster to control the voice. That is why Lancaster does not have districts because they lose the control of the message. Systematic racism at its finest!

            This is exactly the problem. Rex picks puppets who are always west side affluent Republicans. Currently, we have no representation in East Lancaster at all. We have no Hispanics on council. The minority council are lap dogs for Rex.

            We have a chance at tomorrow’s protest to say enough of Rex’s systematic racism. He needs to apologize and change his ways.

      Is this just a protest against police brutality or can we protest racial injustice that has come from Rex? What he did to Johnathan Ervin was racist. When he declared war on Section 8 it brought the DOJ to our city. I want to protest those actions too.

        District elections in Lancaster will help give more neighborhoods in Lancaster a voice in how our City is governed. Don’t let those “good old boys” control who represents our diversity.

    The AV cities haven’t set curfews because there hasn’t been any major rioting.

      While.it is true that the AV coties did not set curfews, the AV cities were included in all Los Angeles County curfew orders we have had for the past 4 days.

      Here is a copy of the order and you can clearly see that there are no exclusions for any of the Antelope Valley cities.
      https://lacounty.gov/emergency/

      The County Board of Supervisors issued a curfew order yesterday covering the entire Los Angeles County including incorporated and unincorporared, which was scheduled to begin at 9:00pm on June 3, 2020 and to continue until 5:00am on June 4, 2020.

      However, it was later announced by Sheriff Alex Villanueva that LASD will enforce the curfew from 10:00 PM to 5:00 AM instead of it starting at 9:00 PM as ordered by the county.
