DARIEN, CT — A "significant quantity" of tobacco products was stolen from a Darien gas station in an early-morning burglary last week, according to police.

At approximately 3:34 a.m. on April 14, police responded to a commercial burglar alarm at the Shell gas station located at 164 Noroton Ave.

Officers noticed a shattered front door and confirmed there was forced entry, a crime summary report said.

Three suspects fled the scene in a dark-colored Nissan sedan, police said, noting further investigation found a second burglary incident at the Gulf gas station at 180 Noroton Ave.
