BREAKING: Convoy of Emergency Vehicles Seen Heading Towards D.C.
ARLnow.com Today at 3:20pm
Arlington County Police Department spokeswoman Ashley Savage declined to provide additional information about deployments today, beyond confirming her earlier statement that ACPD is assisting D.C. police under a mutual aid agreement.
ACPD does not provide tactical information such as the number of officers deployed, Savage said. There has been no change to the deployment of officers to D.C. under the mutual aid agreement with the Metropolitan Police Department.
The District has instituted a 6 p.m. to 6 a.m. curfew. Arlington County Manager Mark Schwartz, via a spokeswoman, said Arlington has no plans for a curfew.
Just before 3:30 p.m., Virginia Gov. Ralph Northam said members of the Virginia National Guard and Virginia State Troopers will be sent to D.C., at the request of Mayor Muriel Bowser.
