Authorities in Connecticut are actively searching for a male suspect who remains at large following a single-vehicle collision in Woodstock. The incident occurred Sunday afternoon when a dark-colored sedan departed Route 171 near the intersection of Rocky Hill Road and Shield Road, ultimately coming to rest in a wooded area. Upon arrival, responding officers discovered that two occupants had exited the damaged vehicle and fled on foot into the surrounding terrain. In response to the manhunt, the Connecticut State Police deployed a specialized canine unit to assist in tracking the individuals. While law enforcement successfully took one female suspect into custody, the male suspect has not yet been located and remains a person of interest. The crash prompted a significant road closure that kept Route 171 shut for several hours while emergency responders and investigators managed the scene and conducted the search operation. The Woodstock Volunteer Fire Association documented the aftermath, sharing images of the wrecked vehicle to aid public awareness. Investigators are urging anyone with information regarding the male suspect’s whereabouts to come forward. The public is reminded that the individual is still at large, and authorities continue to conduct active searches in the Woodstock area. Residents and travelers are advised to exercise caution in the vicinity and report any suspicious activity or sightings to the Connecticut State Police immediately.
