Further, that the Revere City Council encourage any resident of Lantern Road between Squire Road and Rumney Road that has a security camera or a smart doorbell to share footage from that night with the Revere Police Department. Hate has no place in Revere, and collectively as a community, we must stand up and denounce atrocious acts such as this.
