FRIDAY, OCTOBER 07, 2016

JACKSONVILLE - As Hurricane Matthew bore down on the Florida coast threatening 130 mile-an-hour winds and huge storm surges, Daytona Beach fire department declared a curfew that will last into Saturday.

Just hours before the leading edge of the storm was due off the major resort, the department said that remaining residents who ignored evacuation pleas would be confined at home all day.
