Three people were arrested on drunken driving as Southold police were joined by members of neighboring departments to increase patrols over the busy holiday weekend.

The “saturation patrols” ran from 8 p.m. Saturday to 4 a.m. Sunday, and yielded the arrests of the following people for DWI and other charges:

Esteban Tocay, 25, of Greenport
