FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
August 3, 2009
Physical Altercation at Shopping Plaza
On Sunday, August 2, 2009 at approximately 11:30 A.M., members of the
Uniformed Services Division responded to the parking lot of the
Riverside Commons, a small shopping mall, located at 1233 East Putnam
Avenue on a report of a large group of individuals involved in a
physical altercation where baseball bats were possibly being used as
weapons.
On arrival of police personnel it was determined that a large group
of Hispanic males had dispersed from the area in several different
vehicles.
Further inquires revealed that the individuals left in four vehicles
and a subsequent description of the vehicles was disseminated to
local police units.
The four vehicles were subsequently observed and detained by
uniformed officers throughout the eastern section of town.
During the detention of the individuals information was developed
that this matter might be connected to illegal activity involving a
blue van located in the Riverside Commons.
A blue van was located in the aforementioned parking lot and the
driver was subsequently located within the parking lot by uniformed
police personnel.
ICE in Connecticut has arrested four people for immigration
violations.
They are currently detained by ICE pending further investigation.
This case is currently under investigation and discussing any
further details about this case will be inappropriate.
