Baltimore Mayor Stephanie Rawlings-Blake issued a statement Sunday morning lifting the curfew in place across the city for almost a week.
“Effective immediately, I have rescinded my order instituting a city-wide curfew,” she said. “My goal has always been to not have the curfew in place a single day longer than was necessary.”
The curfew had required all of the city’s residents to remain indoors between 10 p.m. and 5 a.m. in the aftermath of riots in West Baltimore which came in response to the death of Freddie Gray while in police custody. Read more at the Baltimore Sun.
