Police tracked down a bus that hit a parked van in Gurney’s lot Friday evening and drove away. Josh Strom, the manager, said the bus driver was backing up at about 7:30 p.m. and hit a 2017 Mercedes Sprinter. The driver then pulled forward, causing additional damage to the van’s mirror, which was hyperextended. Mr. Strom said he banged on the bus to try to get the driver’s attention to stop. He asked the bus driver for insurance information, he told police, and the driver got out, looked at the damage, and then drove away without providing any. Police found the bus, a 2008 Setra, on Amagansett Main Street with scratch marks on a back corner. The driver said he left the parking lot because he had to pick up passengers. He was ticketed for leaving the scene of an accident with property damage.
