Mayor Says Officers Can Return To Force

The FBI is ending its excessive force  probe against three Agawam police officers. 

Officers John Moccio and  Edward Connor, as well as Sergeant Anthony Grasso, were fired in 2016  for their roles in the arrest of David Desjardins at Six Flags New  England. 

Agawam Mayor William Sapelli says  following the  FBI's decision to drop the case last month, the officers are being  brought back to the force. 

Sapelli, who came into office in January,  reversed the action of former mayor Richard Cohen, who fired the trio  after the incident.

Two of the officers have already been reinstated.

One of the officers is still going through a Civil Service review.
