“Police will remain throughout and will have a presence throughout our community, to make sure that all of our citizens are safe, protected and served.

The curfew was first enacted Monday following incidents of property damage and vandalism that occurred Sunday night and into Monday morning. It was slated to expire on Wednesday morning, but city officials left the option to extend it if need be.
