NEW YORK -- With looting and violence spinning out of control, New York City has extended its nighttime curfew on nonessential workers through Sunday.
The curfew initially imposed Monday for 11 p.m. to 5 a.m. -- the first such order since 1943 -- will now start at 8 p.m. as of Tuesday. Similar restrictions have been ordered in Washington, D.C., and Los Angeles.
