Fifteen people were arrested in Montauk Wednesday in connection with an alleged narcotics distribution ring, Suffolk County District Attorney Timothy D. Sini's office announced Thursday morning. 

"The alleged conspiracy to sell narcotics involved several seasonal employees in local bars and restaurants who were receiving packages of illicit substances through the mail," a press release from the D.A.'s office said.

The district attorney, the U.S. Drug Enforcement Administration, the U.S. Postal Inspection Service, and members of the district attorney’s East End Drug Task Force will hold a press conference Thursday afternoon at 2 at the D.A.'s office in Hauppauge to release more information.
