The investigation determined that a 2026 Toyota Highlander, operated by Jarod Tramontana, of Greenport, was traveling westbound on Route 25; he swerved to avoid an uninvolved vehicle that he reported had crossed into his lane of travel, police said.

Tramontana's vehicle subsequently left the roadway and struck the support wires of a PSEG utility pole, police said.

The vehicle continued through the parking lot of the Greenport Harbor Brewing Company before first striking the building, entering through an overhead door and then, coming to a stop inside the building, police said.

The collision caused significant damage to the interior of the building and its contents; a witness said the stage area of the brewery appeared to be destroyed.

Tramontana was transported from the scene by the Southold Fire Department to a waiting Suffolk County Police Department helicopter and subsequently airlifted to Stony Brook University Hospital for treatment of his injuries, police said.

The Southold town fire marshal and Southold Town building inspector also responded to the scene, police said.

The investigation remains ongoing; no charges have been filed at this time, police said.
