Her License Was Suspended Eight Times

A Sag Harbor woman was arrested Aug. 6 in East Hampton on a felony charge of driving while intoxicated, having been convicted of the crime within the last 10 years.

Town police said they watched as Fabrice Twagirumukiza, 34, heading west on Montauk Highway in a 2013 Nissan, drifted out of her lane. She was pulled over at about 2:25 a.m. near Spring Close Highway. Police said she appeared intoxicated and performed poorly on all field sobriety tests. 

She was additionally charged with aggravated unlicensed operation of a motor vehicle, also a felony, and with misdemeanor use of a leased, rented, or loaned vehicle not equipped with an Interlock device, a requirement of her conviction, which occurred in Southampton Justice Court on Dec. 22, 2009. Since then, her license has been suspended eight times and revoked.

East Hampton Town Justice Steven Tekulsky arraigned the woman later that day. Bail was set at $7,500, which was met, and she was released.

Yohanna Guarin, 36, of Jupiter, Fla., was charged with misdemeanor D.W.I. at 2:49 a.m. last Thursday after police reported her speeding at 60 miles per hour in a 45 m.p.h. zone, on Route 114 near Cove Hollow Road in East Hampton. Police also said she had failed to maintain her lane and had an inadequate brake light. She was arraigned later that day and released on her own recognizance.

At about 1:30 a.m. Saturday, Matthew J. Gutauskas, 45, of New Canaan, Conn., was also charged with D.W.I. Police said his 2017 Infiniti, eastbound on Montauk Highway near West Gate Road in Wainscott, had crossed the double yellow line into oncoming traffic and then crossed the shoulder markings as well. 

Justice Tekulsky released him on $250 bail following arraignment later that morning.

Guido E. Sincha of East Hampton, 19, who was arrested Aug. 7 at about 9:15 p.m. on a town nature preserve known as Jacob’s Farm Preserve in Springs, faces charges of misdemeanor D.W.I. and unauthorized vehicular access, a violation, as well as two violations, unlawful possession of marijuana and, since he is under 21, of alcohol.

Police said they clocked Mr. Sincha, driving a red 2010 Ford Mustang north on Neck Path, at about 40 m.p.h. in a 30 m.p.h. zone, and watched as he failed to yield to oncoming traffic while turning left onto Old Stone Highway, nor did he come to a complete stop at the intersection of Old Stone Highway and Accabonac Road. He reportedly performed poorly on all field sobriety tests. 

During a search of the Mustang, police found a plastic bag containing a green leafy substance in the center console; it later tested positive for marijuana. They also found eight full bottles of Corona Extra beer and two full bottles of Modelo Especial Beer in the car. 

Mr. Sincha was held overnight and arraigned before Justice Tekulsky on Aug. 8. He was released on his own recognizance. 

In Sag Harbor Village early last Thursday, police arrested a Bridgehampton man following an accident on Main Street. Police arrived at 3:13 a.m. to find a 2018 Chevrolet Tahoe lying on the driver’s side.

Andrew J. Reilly, 41, who reportedly acknowledged being behind the wheel at the time of the accident, was charged with aggravated driving while intoxicated, a misdemeanor, and released later that day on $500 bail after arraignment in Sag Harbor Village Justice Court.
