According to a Greenwich Police report, officers stopped a motorist on West Putnam Avenue at 12:45 a.m. Dec. 29 because the driver's car had only one operable headlight. The driver told police "he did not possess a license or any identification, that the vehicle did not have any registration or insurance, and that the registration plate belonged on his old vehicle," according to the report.
