Ansonia Police seek suspects in Wakelee Avenue street takeover early Saturday


ANSONIA - Ansonia Police responded at about 12:25 a.m. Saturday to multiple reports of a possible street takeover and fireworks being shot off at the intersection of Wakelee Avenue and Franklin Street. 

The first officer on scene encountered between 50 and 100 people in the street with several dozen cars in the road, some of which were driving erratically, Lt. Patrick Lynch said in a written release late Saturday night.

A group approached the officer’s car, with at least one of them jumping onto the hood of the police car while the others started to surround it. 

The officer attempted to back away and struck a car that was parked. The group continued to advance on the officer and began to throw objects at his car, damaging the car. 

Once more police officers arrived the crowd dispersed entering Route 8 going both north and south. No one was injured in the incident. 

Police have begun to identify suspects. There is a video circulating on social media depicting some of the incident. Lynch said the department asks  that you do not share or re-post the video as it gives groups like this the social media recognition they are trying to gain.


This is a release from Lt. Patrick Lynch.
