ADDISON COUNTY — During the period between May 1 and 7, Vermont State Police at the New Haven barracks issued releases on three incidents.
First, on May 3 troopers followed up on an April 26 incident in which the driver of a Chevy pickup truck failed to yield at the intersection of Route 7 and Leicester-Whiting Road in Leicester resulting in the pickup being struck by a tractor-trailer driven by a Florida man. The pickup left the scene before police arrived.
Troopers on May 3 identified the pickup truck driver as 24-year-old Michael Dutton of Leicester. Police cited Dutton for leaving the scene of an accident, and they issued him a ticket for driving without insurance.
On May 4, state police reported that on April 23 and May 3 they had received information regarding a burglary at a residence on Mountain Road in Addison. Someone apparently had gained entry into the home by undisclosed means and taken unspecified items on both days. Anyone with any information regarding this burglary is asked to contact Trooper Mae Murdock at the New Haven barracks at 802-388-4919. A tip can be submitted anonymously online at vtips.info.
