East Hampton Village

A Suffolk County bus driver called police because she believed a man had followed her in a Jeep while she made routine stops between the East Hampton Village train station and Montauk on March 10 and again on March 17. On March 18 she got in touch with police, who told her to contact them immediately the next time it happens. 

Police responded to a report of a loose dog after it ran through an open door and into a house on the Circle on Saturday afternoon. An officer spoke to the homeowner, who said all was fine, and that a family member must have left the door ajar.  

Springs

Monique Sullivan called police after she received a call on her cellphone on March 14 around 6:50 p.m. from a man with a Middle Eastern accent. He said her Social Security number had been compromised and asked for the number to confirm it was Ms. Sullivan on the line. Sensing a scam, she hung up. He called her cellphone again and left a threatening message. A short time later, another man called her house phone trying to sell her solar panels. Police tried both phone numbers, but the calls were disconnected
