Councilor Plans Forum for Crime Prevention
Councilor-at-Large David D'Arcangelo is organizing a "Peace Through Service" Community Forum to bring Maldonians together to collaborate on reducing violence in the city.
A city councilor hopes to bring members of the city's business, non-profit and service groups to collaborate on crime prevention strategies during a “Peace Through Service” Community Forum next week.
Councilor-at-Large David D'Arcangelo - who is also the president of the Malden Rotary Club, which is organizing the event - said he hoped the forum would be another tool in the city's push to prevent violent crime.
The city has seen an usual spike in shootings this summer.
