Man Arrested on Redding Warrant Stemming from 2009

On March 14, Greenwich Police arrested Christopher Upton, 43, of Newtown on a warrant issued by Redding Police following his refusal to show up in court to answer charges stemming from November 2009.

Police Chief Douglas Fuchs said he was driving an unmarked car on Cross Highway in 2009 when he saw Upton illegally pass the car behind him. Upton then began tailgating Fuchs and flashing his high beams.

Fuchs then pulled Upton over and determined he was driving with a suspended license. He was also charged with improper passing.

Upton never showed up in court to answer the 2009 charges.
