‘Not enough’: Worcester officials vowed to implement changes within its police department; Here’s what the city has done Updated Feb 03, 2021; Facebook Share Officials in Worcester congregated with hundreds in the community last June to protest police brutality following the deaths of George Floyd and Breonna Taylor. Mayor Joseph Petty, City Manager Edward Augustus and Police Chief Steve Sargent participated in the demonstration. They marched to the District Courthouse downtown. They took a knee as a sign of solidarity. As the calendar now flips to 2021, those actions outside City Hall last June remain highlights of what the city has done in the wake of calls for police reform across the country.
