Cops: Man charged with DWI after making threat at winery

Southold Police said a man was arrested on a DWI charge Sunday afternoon after he threatened another man at a Cutchogue winery and then proceeded to leave the vineyard in his “large motor home.”

According to police, a harassment call had been filed with police reporting the incident, and police later spotted the motor home driving westbound on Route 25. Police said the driver was then observed leaving his lane of travel, and failed to make a sufficient turn signal.

Police pulled over 59-year-old George Clancy, and said during an interview he had alcohol on his breath. He was reportedly found to be intoxicated and arrested on a misdemeanor DWI charge.
