#Seattle Seattle mayor lifts curfew order
Seattle Mayor Jenny Durkan and Police Chief Carmen Best on Wednesday evening rescinded the city's daily curfew, which had been in effect since Saturday night.

"Earlier today (Best) and I met with community leaders who asked us to end the curfew," Durkan tweeted just after 7 p.m. "Chief Best believes we can balance public safety and ensure peaceful protests can continue without a curfew."

"For those peacefully demonstrating tonight, please know you can continue to demonstrate," she continued. "We want you to continue making your voice heard."
