The East End D.W.I. Task Force was on patrol Friday night, the day after Thanksgiving, yielding one arrest.

Michael Muller, 48, of West Babylon was driving a 2018 Ford pickup truck south on Route 114 near Hardscrabble Close in East Hampton when a village police officer spotted him following other vehicles too closely and not staying in his lane of travel at around 11:30 p.m., according to a report.

He was charged with misdemeanor driving while intoxicated and held overnight for arraignment. Justice Steven Tekulsky released him on his own recognizance the next morning.
