(I'm legit asking, haven't watched, searched out timelines, etc)

I honestly don't know. The only order I heard was for the media to stop filming (twice) including a final warning to turn off the cameras. That's when the rubber bullets and canisters started flying.

My response was in reference to gstelmack saying the police's job is to defend the town from looters. That clearly wasn't occurring.

edit: Thinking about it more, I know they had requested that all protests take place during daylight hours. I don't think it went as far as invoking a curfew.
