3 people were also shot in a separate incident, at Westminster and Bridgham street. I believe that is the Wiggins Village projects, on the edge of the Armory.

The Roger Williams Park incident has been changed from a "homicide" to a "suspicious death". See videos below.

The location of this incident -- as published by Channel 10 and posted by massnative71 -- is not accurate. It happened on Federal Hill. The exact location isn't completely clear, but I believe it was on Carpenter Street (across from Gotham Court).

It was a real bad scene. A guy got shot in the face. The crime scene was 4 blocks of Federal Hill. See videos below.

^This is just the latest of multiple incidents occurring in that area (on both sides of the city line). Just wondering if you guys still stand by statements such as these?

Houses on Parkside Drive and on the park itself have always commanded top dollar.
Are these still recommended areas to live, or does all the recent trouble now give you pause?

Medical examiner confirmed he was shot, and it has been ruled a homicide.

Providence needs less police about as much as it needs less jobs.

2 people were stabbed outside the Family Dollar at 320 Dexter Street in Pawtucket. That's right on the Central Falls line.
