A Baiting Hollow man was caught driving drunk when he was seen weaving in and out of his lane with one of his brake lights out in Hampton Bays early Sunday, Southampton Town police said.

Police spotted Brian Brown, 25, driving a Dodge R15 pickup truck on Lynn Avenue about 2:30 a.m., according to a police report. The officer pulled over Mr. Brown for having a brake light out and swerving in the road and found he was intoxicated, according to a police report.
