Cops: Greenport man again caught violating order of protection

A Greenport man was arrested Wednesday morning after he violated an order of protection by entering a Greenport residence he is prohibited from, Southold Town Police said.

Robert Lee Smith, 54, entered the residence of Harry Biechele, 41, at 10:57 a.m. and was subsequently arrested, transported to headquarters, processed and lodged awaiting arraignment, police said.

Mr. Smith was arrested on similar charges last month.

He is the same Robert Lee Smith who was stabbed by his 76-year-old father in their Third Street home several years back.
