Incident Location: Fairford Avenue south of Ratliffe Street, Norwalk
Victim: 26-Year-old Male

Unit: Norwalk Station Detective Bureau
Narrative:
The victim was walking on Fairford Ave when he was struck by the suspect's vehicle, which was driving southbound. The victim was dragged by the vehicle for over two hundred feet and suffered major injuries. The victim is in intensive care at a local hospital.
The suspect vehicle is described as a black “party bus”, this type of vehicle is rented out by groups for special events. As the suspect's vehicle drove past the witness, he saw that the interior neon lights were flashing, and heard music coming from inside. The vehicle was last seen turning westbound on Foster Road and out of view.
We are looking for witnesses to come forward that were either on the above “party bus”, or have knowledge of any similar vehicle that may have been in the Norwalk area at or near the indicated time.
