The Curious Incident of the BB Rifle on the Roadway in the Nighttime

Download PDF

When police were told at about 9 p.m. on Monday, Oct. 9 that there appeared to be a rifle laying on the pavement of Hollow Tree Ridge Road near Ox Ridge Lane, officers arrived to see what was going on. There on the roadway was a rifle — a BB rifle, specifically a Daisy “Red Rider” BB gun. Police didn’t find any reason to think it had been involved in a crime. If it’s yours, or if you know anything about the Red Rider that seems to have lost its ride, please tell Darien police.
