Overall for its size and population, Worcester is one of the safest cities. But also overall Vernon Hill is one of the unsafest neighborhoods in the city. Gang shootings etc..don't do drugs, don't sell drugs, and you'll be ok. Lock your car at all times! Edit: Grew up in Vernon Hill, that part of the city has gone downhill in the last 15 years, badly.

So you guys would prefer a nobody from a Western state lead the city over a guy who's been and raised here for years? Clueless and racist.

It is due to Covid relief funds. Businesses received thousands $$ in relief. If they stay open, they have to pay it all back. If they close, and re-open somewhere else... no repayment needed

It's not due to the ballpark.

If this happened during school hours, I get it, I'd be asking questions. This was at like 10pm, all the kiddos are sleeping. Also, complain to your city counsel. When there are no injuries , wpd is not obligated to release any info on the incident.
