- On Saturday, March 27, at 7:09 a.m, officers responded to a residence on Silvermine Road on the report of 2017 Jaguar that was stolen from the driveway. This vehicle was unlocked and had the key in it. In the early morning hours of March 27, this stolen vehicle was involved in a pursuit with the New York State Police, but no arrests were made and the vehicle has not been recovered. Another unlocked vehicle in the same driveway was entered but nothing was stolen from it.
"Despite the COVID-19 pandemic, criminal gangs are active throughout Fairfield County," Krolikowski said. "In the past, some of the vehicles stolen in Fairfield County were used in violent crimes."
Krolikowski urged residents to be more cautious and practice good crime prevention strategies.
"This carelessness is putting our entire town at risk," the chief added.
