Cordons have been up all along the streets of the city centre, and in a few hours, steel plates will be erected in their places to enclose each block.
This café was preparing to close down.

Feeling that his actions did not fit in with the tense atmosphere around him, he pulled a mask out of his trouser pocket to put it on.
