To Our Somerville Community:
Somerville Police Officers have dedicated themselves to transparent, compassionate, procedurally just community policing. As a member of the world community and a human being I was devastated to see the brutality inflicted by a police officer on another human being and member of our shared world community, George Floyd. As a Department we grieve with our community as we process this unnecessary and tragic loss of life. I look forward to productive conversation with our community and conversation with police leaders throughout the country on how we prevent this from ever happening again.
Sincerely,
David Fallon
Chief of Police
