24 Hour Curfew - West Helena, Arkansas
HELENA-WEST HELENA, Ark. (AP) - Helena-West Helena Mayor James Valley says he ordered a round-the-clock curfew and heavy police patrol in a ten-block section of town because the neighborhood was "under siege with repeated gunfire, loitering, drug dealing and other general mayhem."
Valley ordered the emergency curfew Thursday, effective immediately. It was still in place today. He said it would remain in place as long as the problems persist or until the city council can come up with a long-term plan at its August 19th meeting.
Thursday night, 18 to 20 police officers carrying M-16 rifles, shotguns and night-vision scopes patrolled the "curfew zone." They arrested about eight people and confiscated drugs and loaded weapons.

Peace and Blessings Family,
From the stories i've seen and read, it appears that this is in a Black neighborhood. Folk can't come out of their house for anything! ... ... oh gosh ... it's not funny ... but dang ... well ... i guess this is the conditioning needed prior to the concentration camps.
Maybe they're testing the waters, before instilling martial law in every Black neighborhood?
The Mayor is Black, and so is the neighborhood that's under martial law right now.
Krazee.
