WILTON — Police searched for a vehicle in the East Wilton area Friday morning after a Wilton police officer clocked the driver at 101 mph on Route 2.
Officer Ryan Richardson was traveling back to Wilton on Route 2 near Rocky Hill Landscaping about 9:30 a.m. when he saw a car with three people inside, he said.
