A Montauk man has been arrested for the second time in less than two months on a felony cocaine possession charge.

Colder weather and rain may be the explanation for a remarkably quiet week on the roads, with just one arrest on a drunken driving charge. Eric M. Peterson, 47, of Springs, was arrested by East Hampton Town police early Sunday after a traffic stop on West Lake Drive in Montauk. Failing roadside sobriety tests, he was taken to headquarters, where a breath test produced a reading of .19 of 1 percent, high enough to raise the misdemeanor charge to the aggravated level. He was released without bail later that morning. 

Another Springs resident arrested over the weekend was Carol K.

Luis Eduardo Valladares, also known to Immigration and Custom Enforcement agents as Luis Eduardo Valladares Arias, is being held in county jail after being arrested last Thursday on charges of criminal contempt.
