A collision between a Honda Civic and a Hyundai SUV on the corner of Locust Ave and Osborne Street resulted in traffic congestion that stretched from Western Connecticut State University to Danbury Hospital this afternoon.
According to the male operator of the Civic (who asked to have his name withheld), as he was turning left onto Osborne around 2PM, the operator of the SUV, collided with him. Although the collision resulted on the air bags of both vehicles being deployed, both operators walked away from the accident with no apparent injuries.
Since the police report was not available when I attempted to obtain a copy, it's not known if the police determined which driver was at fault or if either operator was ticketed for the accident.
I'll update this post once more info is available...

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.
