Former Mayor of Fall River and former Bristol County District Attorney Sam Sutter kicked off his mayoral campaign on Tuesday at SouthCoast Marketplace.
FALL RIVER Hours after an 18-year-old city man was arraigned on gun charges in connection with last week’s shooting in Griffin Park, Mayor Paul Coogan met with several dozen Corky Row residents to discuss ways to quell future violence.
“I want people to know that whatever they need we’re here to support them, we’re going to be putting programs in Griffin Park over the summer,” said Coogan at a neighborhood meeting held at the Corky Row Club. “There are all sorts of ideas floating around right now, and I don’t want to jump to just one. But I want people to know we’re going to be here, not today, not tomorrow, from now on with all they have going on in Corky Row.”
