Providence mayor says community is safe, despite no arrests
Rudy Chinchilla
Providence's mayor tonight reassured the public that they are safe, even as the gunman in yesterday's shooting remains on the loose.
Mayor Brett Smiley emphasized that an hours long shelter-in-place order was lifted earlier because police had not received any credible threats since the shooting to the Brown, Providence or greater Rhode Island communities. That has not changed, he said.
