On behalf of the Town staff, I would like to express our sincere concern surrounding the tragedy that occurred this past weekend on Hancock Street, and to offer our sympathy and support to all who were directly and indirectly impacted, including residents and staff. We acknowledge the trauma this type of event can have for us as individuals, and as a broader community.
While we, as Town employees, cannot discuss this specific incident due to the independent investigation by the Middlesex District Attorney’s Office, we want you to know that we care and that we understand various community members may be impacted differently.
Once the investigation is completed, we will hold a community conversation to listen to your concerns and answer any questions that you may have. In the meantime, our Human Services Department has clinicians who are available to provide individual support to any resident who needs it. Services are free and confidential.
The Human Services Department can be reached at 781-698-4840 or humanservicesoffice@lexingtonma.gov.
We thank those of you who have reached out to offer support and value the relationships we have built over the years. We are humbled by the privilege to serve the Lexington community, and are committed to transparency and action when the time is appropriate.
Jim Malloy, Town Manager
Michael McLean, Chief of Police
