Any and all police reports, incident reports, and any other police documentation related to police activity at the address of 296 Sylvan Knoll Road, Stamford, CT 06902 for the dates between May 1, 2022, to May 6, 2024.

This request is being made in a personal capacity and is no way affiliated with any professional media, news organization or journalistic endeavor.

I also request that, if possible and pursuant to Conn. Gen. Stat. § 1-212(d), fees be waived as I believe this request is in the public interest and not made for commercial gain. The requested documents will be made available to the public at MuckRock.com.

In the event that there are fees, I would be grateful if you would inform me of the total charges in advance of fulfilling my request. I would prefer the request filled electronically, by e-mail attachment if available or CD-ROM if not.
