NEW ORLEANS (AP) — The ACLU of Louisiana says the mayor and police chief of Ville Platte have agreed to suspend enforcing the city’s pedestrian curfew at least until next Tuesday.
Thursday’s agreement comes one day after the ACLU filed a federal lawsuit in Lafayette.
The organization said the City Council will decide Tuesday whether to drop the ordinance, which prohibits walking after 10 p.m. on weekdays and 1 a.m. on weekends.
