Little Rock is under a 10 p.m. curfew starting tonight, due to concerns about covid-19 and outside agitators.
The executive order, signed by Mayor Frank Scott Jr. today, is to address large gatherings that could lead to more coronavirus cases among protesters who are not social distancing or wearing face coverings.
Mayor Scott said he would continue to monitor the situation to determine when the curfew should be lifted, but does exempt individuals traveling to and from work.
First time violators will be issued a warning and further violations will result in a citation.
Curfew hours are 10 p.m. to 5 a.m.
