Now, this is a rumor and I'm trying my best to get verification as quickly as possible but if it's true, it would be a great as Pepe's has the BEST pizza in the area HANDS DOWN.
UPDATE: Received one confirmation of the opening of a place in Danbury but haven't heard back from management at Pepe's yet...
UPDATE 2: Received more reports that Pepe's is opening a new locale in Danbury. Reports include plans from Pepe's that's been submitted to the permit's office at City Hall. The location of the place will be at 59-67 Federal Road.
Still waiting on confirmation from management.
UPDATE 3 (06.02.10):Here's what the News-Times has to say.
Owners of the popular New Haven pizzeria have submitted plans with the city to open a Frank Pepe Pizzeria on Federal Road near the Harley-Davidson store.
The plans call for a restaurant with enough seating for nearly 70 customers. The application still needs to be reviewed by building officials.
[...]
Charles Troccolo, the owner of the building, said he believes the pizzeria could be very successful at the location, which is near Interstate 84. He declined to comment on when the restaurant might open its doors.

On September 26, 2007, ten plaintiffs filed suit in response to an arrest of aday laborers at a public park in Danbury, Connecticut. Plaintiffs amended their complaint on November 26, 2007.
The amended complaint states that plaintiffs sought to remedy the continued discriminatory and unauthorized enforcement of federal immigration laws against the Latino residents of the City of Danbury by Danbury's mayor and its police department.
Plaintiffs allege that the arrests violated their Fourth Amendment rights and the Connecticut Constitution because defendants conducted the arrests without valid warrants, in the absence of exigent circumstances, and without probable cause to believe that plaintiffs were engaged in unlawful activity. In addition, plaintiffs allege that defendants improperly stopped, detained, investigated, searched and arrested plaintiffs. Plaintiffs also allege that defendants violated their Fourteenth Amendment rights when they intentionally targeted plaintiffs, and arrested and detained them on the basis of their race, ethnicity and perceived national origin. Plaintiffs raise First Amendment, Due Process and tort claims.
Plaintiffs request declaratory relief, damages and attorneys fees.
