VERNON, CT — The latest installment of the Picture Vernon series takes us back to 1961.
An old evidence photo from the Vernon Police Department shows a crash at the intersection of Route 83 and Regan Road.
The officer taking the photo was standing in front of what is now a Valero gas station and across the intersection is now a Shell station.
