Video Report–Three Fairfield University Students Rescued From Long Island Sound
@FairfieldU--Firefighters from Fairfield rescued three Fairfield University students who drifted about one and a half miles from land Assistant Fire Chief Scott Bisson told me. He said they were very lucky to have made cellphone contact to rescues workers. The women were able to stay on the line and remained calm, assisting in helping locate them. Cellphone reception at sea can be very spotty. At first it was thought they were at the point near St. Mary's by the Sea and drifting out.

I would guess if you see a car with a spotlight mounted on the driver's side would be the best clue! Westport was one of the first police departments to have a stealth car in it's fleet.

Fairfield University Big Brother Security
@FairfieldU #Fairfield University--It will be interesting to see how the under aged drinking on campus will go this weekend, but security is like big brother this week.
