East Hampton Village

Police went to a Huntting Lane house to check on the well-being of a resident after receiving a report of what appeared to be blood in the snow near the front porch. The man, whose name was redacted from the incident report, is known to the police because he has chased strangers down the street in the past. He told an officer that the stains in the snow were beet juice he had disposed of.
