Judging simply by the fact that another 10 no-flys have been issued today alone (per that website), I doubt this is really news.
Digging deeper, if you read the details provided, this was done to ensure law enforcement had access to that airspace, presumably so they can fly police helicopters in it. Given that reason, I would assume this is standard operating procedure during any ongoing law enforcement effort.
"Sounds like news but isn't" is a category we could use a lot less of on HN. Please do not post stuff like this. It sounds dramatic, it gets attention, but it ultimately means very little. It certainly doesn't affect anyone here personally (because it likely doesn't affect anyone at all... how many people are actually flying in this space anyway?). And it also provokes no intellectual discussion of any kind. What is there really to say about this aside from "yep, it's happening"?
