WBLN! Your news, your station.

You're with WBLN. Developments today from the White House...

... and a 6pm curfew in all major cities ...

... a mere 24 hours after the widening of the Knox Event Exclusion Zone.

Phil Hartup is on the ground in Washington.

Thank you Diane. Shocking revelations here, as the President...

... 'accepts responsibility' for the 'perceived lack of communication'.

Meanwhile, is hope waning for those left inside the Event Zone?

At this time we have no reason to believe residents of Kentucky will not recover.

However, as the picture clears, and more information is made available...

... its likelihood is starting to recede.

We have been hesitant to discuss specifics, yes, but with reason.

The Knox Event IS contained, but its panic and confusion are not.

We wanted to establish facts, but public alarm has not provided enough time.

From 6pm tonight there will be curfews in some of our biggest cities.

This is for your protection. Please do not leave your house.

Please have faith in both our military and our emergency services.

That was the President, speaking this morning.

We've been told to direct you to local programming for curfew information.

Back to you Diane.

Thanks Phil. As these pictures show...

... temporary military installations have been set up in central city locations.

Central Park. Downtown LA. Miami Beach. More.

Will this silence the panic on our streets?

Will looters give up and go home?

We'll have updates as they happen.
