ANSONIA – New video footage has proven to be a key piece of evidence in the investigation of a car crash that occurred Monday at the intersection of East Main Street and Kingston Drive.

Ansonia Police announced today that the accident, which has been under investigation since earlier this week, was captured on video, clearly showing that speed was a contributing factor to the accident.

Initial findings also suggest that alcohol may have played a role, but the investigation is still ongoing.
