Gunshots Reportedly Heard Near Greenport High School: Police

GREENPORT, NY — A series of gunshots were heard on the North Fork Monday night, police said.

According to Southold Town Police Chief Martin Flatley, at 11:30 p.m., two calls came in, both from people hearing a series of gunshots.

"One of the callers lives north of Greenport High School and said it sounded close; the second was from Shelter Island, and she reported it sounded close to her residence," Flatley said.

Both the Greenport officer and the Shelter Island officer dispatched to the calls reported also hearing the shots — and they felt they were coming from either Shelter Island or from out over the water, Flatley said.

"We could not identify the source of the gunshots," Flatley said.

School went on as normal Tuesday, Greenport Superintendent of Schools Marlon Small said.

" Chief Flatley advised us that there was no threat to the school. As such, no special procedures were implemented," he said.
