East Hampton Village

Police responded to a noise complaint at Riverhead Building Supply on the night of Sept. 16. The company had large trucks that were creating a loud banging noise, an employee told police, but the trucks were done for the night at that point.

About an hour later, police investigated another noise complaint, this time of “explosion” noises near Conklin Terrace. At the scene, police, too, could hear the noises but could not locate the source, they informed the caller.

After finding a Facebook Marketplace listing for a rental on Tuthill Road, a man signed a contract and sent an initial $2,470, followed by another $1,107, he told police.
