A taxi driver in Montauk who received a parking ticket on Memorial Day weekend and wound up with additional charges will have his day in court next month.

A man was arrested early Friday morning after running his 2004 Chevrolet into the sand on the side of Cranberry Hole Road near Promised Land in Amagansett.

An officer on patrol on the morning of June 21 noticed pieces of white porcelain on the ground at the parking lot at the end of South Lake Drive in Montauk. Going into the restroom to investigate, she found that a urinal and a mirror had been smashed, and the toilet paper, soap, and towel dispensers had all been destroyed.

Bruce Bates, the longtime emergency preparedness coordinator for East Hampton Town, turned himself in last Thursday morning after being notified by the office of the Suffolk County District Attorney that he was about to be arrested and charged with grand larceny.
