Rene Patricio Yanza Garcia, 24, a resident of the North Sea area of Southampton, was charged by East Hampton Village Police with misdemeanor DWI a little after midnight on Sunday following a traffic stop on Montauk Highway near Danie’s Hole Road. Police said the stop was made because Yanza Garcia, driving west in a 2023 Honda Civic, was driving 70 mph where the limit is 40. He appeared intoxicated, the arresting officer reported, and failed sobriety tests, after which he was placed under arrest. Once at police headquarters, he consented to take a breath test, the police said, which produced a reading of .20, over twice the .08 mark that defines intoxication in the State of New York, and an excess of the .18 mark that automatically raises the misdemeanor charge to the aggravated misdemeanor level.
