A Mastic man crashed his car into a fence at the intersection of Route 231 and Montauk Highway at 1:20 a.m. Monday and was arrested for DWAI, according to Suffolk Police.
The car hit a fence at 270 East Main Street, located just east of the Sherman Williams paint store on Montauk Highway, and no injuries were reported in the crash.
A call to Suffolk Marine, whose property is bordered with the fence, went unanswered as the boat sales and boat yard company is closed on Mondays.
