The Public Information Office reports the details of an unusual incident that occurred on Friday, June 5, 2020 at 7:23 am in Wantagh.

While on patrol, at the intersection of Seaford Avenue and Locust Avenue, a 7^th Precinct police officer came upon three, five-gallon size, Poland Spring containers and one five gallon plastic bucket that were left along the curbside and were filled with what appeared to be a flammable liquid. 

A subsequent investigation revealed that they contained kerosene and were apparently illegally disposed of and left in the street. The containers were removed by the Fire Marshalls Office for disposal.
