Police said they were dispatched to the Meadowbrook Terrace Mobile Home Park at 55 Sugar Street about 9:35 pm on April 3 to check on a report of a suspicious person in the area.

About 5:40 pm April 4, motorist Gregg Matthews, 46, of 10 Megans Circle, who was driving a 1999 Volkswagen Passat northward on South Main Street, attempted to make a left turn onto Country Club Road, police said.

As Matthews was making the turn, the Volkswagen collided with a southbound 2001 Mitsubishi Galant sedan driven by Jamie Mitchell Furno, 42, of 9 Old Tavern Road, police said. Jamie Mitchell Furno, and Mitsubishi passenger Jenna Furno, age 2, were transported to Danbury Hospital for observation, police said.

Rear-Ender

About 8:48 am April 4, southbound motorist Elvis Rodriques, 21, of Danbury, who was driving a 2002 Honda Civic, was waiting at a red traffic signal on South Main Street, near Sand Hill Plaza, when he was struck from behind by southbound motorist Steve Esmeraldo, 24, of Monroe, who was driving a 1999 Honda Civic, police said.
