New Fairfield teen caught with alcohol, fake ID

A teenager from New Fairfield is facing a number of charges for having alcohol in his car and a fake ID.  Police say 18-year old Jacob Wixted was stopped on Route 22 in the town of Southeast early last Friday morning for a routine traffic violation. 

That's when a Deputy found an alcoholic beverage in the car and a fake Connecticut driver's license. 

The teen was released on $150 bail to his parents.  He will appear in Southeast Justice Court at a future date to answer the charges.
