Darien police say a man charged with thefts in Westport stole a bicycle on Dew Lane in Darien — and left it across the street. Police gave this account of the incident and investigation, including accusations not proven in court:
At 2:21 a.m. on July 3, the mobile phone of Jose Velazquez, 58, of Bridgeport, indicated it was in the area of Dew Lane in Darien. Darien police got that information from Westport police as they investigated the theft of a bicycle from a garage. The garage door had been found ajar at about 9:30 a.m. Soon afterward, the bike was found in grass across the street. The theft was reported at 1:56 p.m. that day.
