Several readers reached out to yours truly wanting to know if I knew what happened to the Blue Chip Restaurant on Eagle Road. For those who don't know, recently the eatery unexpectedly closed it's doors, which marked the second business that went bust at that location in at least the last two years (the building formerly housed Houlihan's).
After doing some research, that ultimately led me to Danbury Superior Court, I can report on what possibly led to the demise of Blue Chip, and it appears to have something to do with someone allegedly not paying their rent and other charges.
Here's a copy of the complaint filed at Danbury Superior Court (Docket number DBD-CV11-6008107-S):
Just as quickly as the owners of Blue chip were shown the door, a new restaurant is scheduled to open it's doors soon...

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.
