\n It\u2019s a hail of a crisis!<\/p>\n

Mayor Bill de Blasio is clamping down on Citibike, Uber, Lyft and Revel night riders, as the Big App<\/a>le looting and violence in the wake of George Floyd\u2019s death threatens to stretch into a seventh day.<\/p>\n

Hizzoner told CNN Tuesday night that the services were shut down with the 8 p.m. curfew \u201cbecause, bluntly, looters were using them.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019m sorry that happened but it was in the name of addressing a bigger problem,\u201d de Blasio said at his briefing Wednesday.<\/p>\n

CitiBike said Tuesday it was barred from operating between 6 p.m. and 5 a.m. Those same restrictions apply to Revel and other electric scooter operators.<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, Uber and Lyft were shut down\u00a0 between 8 p.m. and 12:30 a.m., restrictions that de Blasio said would continue through Sunday.<\/p>\n

Essential workers will still be able to use yellow and green cabs to get around all day and night, while subways and buses will continuing running until 1 a.m.<\/p>\n

A city official justified the decision by saying looters were turning the popular ride-hailing apps into getaway vehicles, having the cars wait around the corner while they broke into stores and stole merchandise.<\/p>\n

Additionally, TV cameras have caught some looters using CitiBikes to smash the windows of stores, and Revel scooters to make quick getaways with their stolen goods.<\/p>\n

However, city officials have repeatedly declined to provide data or details on how often troublemakers use the popular bike, scooter and car services in their attacks.<\/span><\/p>\n

City Hall ordered the shutdowns with little warning Sunday evening and followed up with the ride-hail services Monday, again providing little notice before pulling the plug.<\/p>\n
