The flagship Macys store in New York City's Herald Square is watched by police after being looted late Monday.has imposed a curfew of 8PM on Tuesday, three hours earlier than it was on Monday, after waves of looting followed peaceful protests over the death of George Floyd.
Before Monday, the last time New York had a curfew was in 1943, when an African-American soldier was shot and injured by a white police officer. New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo said Monday he had co-ordinated efforts with De Blasio and had planned to double the number of police officers on the streets to 8,000. The show of force did not seem to help deter looting, at least initially, as it swept through Manhattan and parts of Brooklyn and the Bronx, though hundreds of arrests were eventually made.
