Deputy Chief Fleming said Chief Gemme also does not believe such a business would be in the best interests of the neighborhood, the city of Worcester or the community at large.
They also pointed out that police have not cited Mr. Gabriel for any violations at his current business location.
I hope he means everyone but Worcester PD.The hours of operation will be 10 a.m. to 8 p.m. for members, while law enforcement groups will be able to use it from 8 to 11 p.m

Oh, ok then. Seems legit chief...
I hope he means everyone but Worcester PD.

Two people spoke against the special permits, including Claudia Russo of 14 Metcalf St., who owns a business on Prescott Street and who initiated a petition before the City Council in opposition to the move.Ms. Russo said her opposition is not about guns, but rather the type of business that she feels goes against the character of a family neighborhood.
Mr. O'Neil said Mr. Gabriel has purchased the building at 170 Prescott St. - the former Greg's Packing Co. warehouse - and intends to invest about $1.5 million in creating a state-of-the-art, cutting-edge gun store and indoor shooting range.
