ANAHEIM, Calif. (June 2, 2020) — Anaheim is implementing a citywide curfew starting tonight at 9 p.m. through tomorrow at 5:30 a.m.

 

Those who are traveling for work, who are giving or seeking emergency care, who are credentialed media or who are homeless are exempt from the curfew.

 

The safety of our community is our top priority.

 

The curfew remains out of an abundance of caution. We are unaware of any planned demonstrations in our city on Tuesday

 

We are tracking demonstrations planned in downtown Anaheim on Wednesday and Friday, though they are anticipated to be smaller in size and scope than what we saw on Monday.

 

We join many in deep concern and disappointment over the Minneapolis incident. But violence and destruction can never be justified and will not be tolerated in Anaheim.

 

As a city, we always welcome peaceful expression in Anaheim. But we will deal quickly and safely with anything that goes beyond that.

 

We thank you all for your cooperation and for helping us keep our city safe.
