Chief Alfonso Morales said enforcing the order and obeying it will get more and more difficult as time goes on.
"As it gets warmer, it is going to be difficult for many of us to stay at home," said Morales.
Morales went on to say that the more rural you are, the easier it is to go for a walk and stay away from people. If you live in the city though, that can be difficult to do.
Chief Morales also mentioned that with the warmer weather last week, MPD officers saw a lot more people out and about playing basketball and enjoying the weather.
The Milwaukee Police Department is considered essential, so even though they are out and about working, police recommend people stay at home if you can and help stop the spread of COVID-19.
