Connecticut State Police Seek Norfolk Hit + Run Driver
We don't often hear about too many news stories coming out of Norfolk, Connecticut. Typically, the Norfolk news that trickles down Route's 7 and 8 towards us concerns Infinity Hall, the Norfolk Chamber Music Festival, or an accident that shuts down Rt. 44 or 272. Today, that's exactly what we've found out about, it's news of a dastardly hit and run driver, right by that intersection, that is making waves from the 'quiet corner'.
We received a request for the public's assistance from the Connecticut State Police Troop B in North Canaan concerning a hit and run accident that occurred over this past weekend.
The crash happened near the Village Green in Norfolk, which is between the intersection of Rt. 44 and 272, sometime between 7PM Saturday, October 3, 2020, and 10AM Sunday, October 4, 2020. The suspect's vehicle sideswiped the parked Honda CR-V that you see in the photos, causing paint and body damage, and kept driving, without contacting the owner of the vehicle, or the police.
State Police believe that the suspect's vehicle should have some sort of damage to the passenger side (right side). If you know anything about this incident, they would like to speak with you. You are being asked to call the Connecticut State Police - Troop B - at (860) 626-1820, and speak with the investigating officer, Trooper Villar. They have also provided the case number, which is 2000429502.
