The road remained closed at 7 p.m. The sidewalks were open and restaurants were full, but yellow caution tape was strung around a section of the road that included a crosswalk and an East Hampton Town police mobile unit was on the scene. 

No further information could be immediately confirmed. Police said they planned to issue a press release on the incident later Friday evening.
