#Fairfield CT–Fairfield Police are investigating an accident on Commerce Drive where an elderly couple was struck by a car in front of Frank Pepe’s Pizzeria. Radio reports said both victims suffered trauma with significant bleeding and transported to St. Vincent’s Hospital.

The driver of the car was transported to Bridgeport Hospital. There have been no further updates, the Fairfield Police Shift Commander was working on a press release when I called police headquarters.  When I get updates I’ll post it on Doingitlocal.com
