Officers went to the home in Danbury at 6:30 p.m. Wednesday for a wellbeing check after a call from a man who was distraught and crying, Chief Patrick Ridenhour told the New Haven Register.

Police in the city about 50 miles northeast of New York City did not release the names of the woman or children. They said it appeared to be an isolated incident and there was no immediate threat to the public.
