Month: November 2015

Over the past few years, the Fairfield Police Department has recognized an increase in commercial motor vehicle traffic on our roads. On Tuesday 11/3/15, The Fairfield Police Traffic Unit worked in conjunction with the Connecticut
State Police Truck Squad to conduct Commercial Truck Safety Enforcement in the beach area of the Town of Fairfield. The Fairfield Police Traffic Unit encompasses four traffic safety officers along with two supervisors who enforce all traffic laws in the town of Fairfield, and The Connecticut State Police Truck Squad primarily focuses their efforts throughout the state assisting other municipalities.

Our enforcement effort resulted in sixteen traffic stops/inspections which lead to over $16,000 worth of infractions that were handed out. These infractions covered violations such as overweight trucks, equipment violations, and a suspended driver license etc. The Fairfield Police and Connecticut State Police Initiative was a success in making the streets safer in the town of Fairfield.

#Bridgeport, Conn. (November 9, 2015) – Today, the Bridgeport Police Department is asking for public assistance in finding a suspect who physically assaulted a juvenile, and stole his bicycle.

On Sunday, November 8, police officers responded to a call regarding a strong arm robbery outside of an establishment near the corner of Ogden St. and Noble Ave. Upon arrival, police officers were told by the victim – who is a juvenile – that he parked his bike outside of the establishment, and went inside for a purchase. When the victim came back outside, the suspect was sitting on the victim’s bicycle. The victim said to the suspect, “give it back.” The suspect responded by punching the victim in the right side of the stomach, and then fled on the victim’s bicycle west bound down Ogden St. The bicycle is a red, gray, and black colored TREK mountain bike Police officers are investigating the incident, and ask for anyone with information on the incident to contact the Bridgeport Police Department at (203) 576-1311.
