The alleged incident happened shortly after 1:30 a.m. Saturday, Aug. 24, in Hampton Bays.
That's when police say a staff member at Beach Bar nightclub requested that a Southampton Town PD officer assist with a male patron who had reportedly offered “drugs” to a bartender.
The ensuing investigation revealed that the suspect offered a quantity of meth to the bartender, which the defendant was still in possession of, according to Southampton Town Police Sgt. Sherekhan T. Parker.
Consequently, Yeison Gonzalez-Ocampo, age 33, of Hampton Bays, was arrested and transported to Southampton Town Police Headquarters for processing.
Gonzalez-Ocampo was charged with criminal possession of a controlled substance.
He was processed at Southampton Town Police Headquarters and then released on an appearance ticket with a future arraignment date.
