Good Thursday morning Connecticut, More sunshine and warmer temperatures continue Thursday, with temps approaching 80 degrees. We can expect the same on Friday. Saturday is looking a bit better, there may still be a slight chance of rain showers during the day but in the evening hours steady rain and even a thunderstorm is possible. The rain is gone by Sunday and the sun returns with high temperatures in the mid 60s. Delivery driver shot At 1 a.m. Thursday, the Fairfield Police Department received a report from a Cumberland farms employee at 975 Kings Highway East, Fairfield, that a male gunshot victim had just entered the store, police said. The victim is a delivery driver for Miller Nissan, who was shot in the abdomen during a robbery attempt at the dealership at 930 Kings Highway East, police said. The victim was transported to an area hospital and has undergone surgery. The latest report was that he is expected to recover, police said. The suspect was described as a man wearing a hooded sweatshirt who fled from the scene toward Castle Avenue, police said. Fairfield and Westport K9's conducted tracks which led to a nearby residence, but they were unable to locate the suspect at the time, police said. A follow-up investigation led investigators back to that residence, and Fairfield Detectives took a suspect into custody for questioning at 6:20 a.m., police said. "At this time, there is no reason to believe additional suspects are at large and as such, there is no active threat to public safety," Fairfield police said. "This remains an active and ongoing investigation, with updates pending."
