Blotter: Woman caught writing on vehicle with lipstick in Mattituck

A Mattituck woman called police last Thursday when a woman wearing a “Hillary for Prison” shirt wrote “Move to Cuba Socialist” on her car’s window, according to a Southold Town police report.

She believes it was because she had a “Bernie 2016” sticker on her bumper and that the markings were in lipstick and were easily removed, the report said.

The officer located the woman around 11:45 a.m. in Mattituck and she admitted to making the markings and apologized for her actions, the report stated. She then offered to remove the markings and said she would never do that again, officials said.
