A Patchogue man was one of two people arrested at the first ever Boating While Intoxicated (BWI) Sobriety Checkpoint that was set up Saturday evening by Suffolk County Police on the Patchogue River near Sandspit Marina, says Suffolk County Police.

Michael Bacher, 49 of Patchogue, and Ana Marie O'Toole, 55 of Holbrook, were both charged with operating a vessel while in an intoxicated condition.

The checkpoint was run by SCPD's Marine Bureau and Highway Patrol Bureau from 6:50 p.m.-9 p.m.

Arraignments for Bacher and O'Toole are scheduled at First District Court in Central Islip for Monday.

Your barking dog complaint in North Patchogue is handled by Public Safety, Town of Broohaven. Call…Read More them at 451-6161 and they will take action. The first time the owners will be warned, the next time they will receive a summons.

Don't know what the Town ordnance is, but if you live within the Village of Patchogue, I believe…Read More there is a "15 minute rule" in the code. Basically, if the dog is barking for more than 15 continuous minutes, it's a violation subject to a fine. Call public safety at 475-1225. Keep in mind it's probably not their first priority (unless the dog has a bad attitude, and is carrying a weapon), but they will be responsive, eventually.
