Doolittle failed to negotiate a right turn, went across the southbound lane, climbed an embankment, struck a tree and rolled over onto its roof. The vehicle slid approximately 50 feet on its roof and came to rest in the southbound lane.

Police responded and found Doolittle trapped in the vehicle. She was extricated by the Weston Fire Department and taken to Norwalk Hospital by Weston EMS.

Larceny

On April 10, a Goodhill Road resident reported that her daughter’s cell phone was left on the back patio of her home while a lawn care company was mowing her lawn. She said the phone went missing that same day.

The phone wasn’t shut off, the woman said, and when the next bill came, she noticed it was being used. The woman called some of the numbers on the bill, and a girl who picked up said she was speaking with a guy she had met who said he was a landscaper.

Police eventually contact the general manager of the lawn care company, who eventually got one of his workers, Abner Soto, 22, of Bridgeport to admit to taking and using the phone.

Soto admitted his wrongdoing, got fired from his job and was charged with larceny in the sixth degree. He signed a misdemeanor waiver, and was given a May 24 court date.

Police learned of their activity after a Valley Forge Road resident reported suspicious people walking door to door.
