DeSimone urges support for police at Rotary meeting
Attorney General Herbert F. DeSimone urged backing for a new state wide program called Project Vigil at a Rotary Club gathering. He cited Pawtucket’s eight month old effort modeled after Akron Ohio, noting closer citizen police cooperation reduced crime. He described distributing literature to teach residents what to report and do. He said police chiefs endorsed the plan and a statewide rollout would seek community and private funding, not government funding, to sustain the program. The article continues on page 2.
