RIDGEFIELD, CT — The Ridgefield Police Department has added a new all-terrain vehicle to its fleet to assist with search and rescue operations, police said.

Officials said the vehicle will help officers respond more effectively to calls in local state parks and other areas that can be difficult to access, particularly as outdoor activity increases in warmer weather.
