East Hampton

A bicycle thief targeted an Accabonac Road house last week.

East Hampton Town police arrested a Sound Beach man on Pantigo Road in East Hampton on the afternoon of May 5, charging him with driving while intoxicated and without a valid license or registration, all misdemeanors.

Michael T. Dolson, 41, was driving a 2006 Ford west near Spring Close Highway at about 2:30 when he swerved onto the shoulder, police said, adding that he then performed poorly on all field sobriety tests.

The season started a week early on local roads, with a noticeable increase in the number of drunken-driving arrests.
