East Hampton
Half a dozen youths on dirt bikes entered the fenced-off property of Bistrian Gravel on the evening of Sept. 23 and drove over newly planted hydro-seed grass, causing ruts costing $3,000 to $4,000 to repair. Barry Bistrian of the Springs-Fireplace Road firm ran after the boys. Four drove out, he told police, heading west, and two others tried, but their bikes broke down. One of them was said to be 15 or 16 years old, about 5-foot-9, with brown hair. He "ditched the dirt bike and hopped on the back of another bike," the report said. A computer check on his green and white Kawasaki bike got a hit for a resident of Hand's Creek Road. Mr. Bistrian said he would not press charges, but did want to speak with the boy's parents.

Wainscott
Dominique Angiel of East Hampton was waiting behind another vehicle to use pump number one at the Speedway 18 station on Sept. 20 when, she told police, a middle-aged woman approached, telling her she was parked at pump number three, which was not working, so she was going to use pump number one next. Ms. Angiel ignored this and pulled up to pump number one when the car in front of her moved, at which point the woman walked up to her black Nissan, yanked the driver's-side door open, began yelling at her, and kicked her in the left thigh. The police report says Ms. Angiel kicked back. The angry woman then got into a gray Mercedes S.U.V. and drove off on Montauk Highway. Ms. Angiel's mother got a photo of the Mercedes's plates, but told police they would leave it at that.
