Worcester police, workers respond to homeless gathering at Green Street underpass
WORCESTER City workers and several police officers responded to the Green Street underpass earlier this week after dozens of people at least some of whom are homeless gathered at the bridge.
The charred remains of an apparent fire lay near cinder blocks and a green tent was set up not far from the bridge Monday morning. Empty pizza boxes, coffee jugs and bags of trash sat not far from a street corner. A single red Christmas stocking hung under the bridge, with two people sleeping in blankets nearby.
A city worker, who declined to be identified, told a Telegram & Gazette photographer it appeared a group had a party.
