At 4:37 p.m., police responded to a Laurel Avenue location for a dispute between a tenant and a landlord. The landlord said her tenant had been drinking all day and screaming at her. Officers interviewed the tenant who said she was upset about the landlord trying to evict her and she was drinking heavily as a result. Police then determined the tenant was suffering from an alcohol overdose and she was transported to Huntington Hospital by Northport Rescue.

At 8:38 p.m., police again responded to a report of a dispute between a landlord and tenant on Laurel Avenue. Police said the tenant alleged that her landlord pushed her and was yelling at her to get out. The landlord said she was doing laundry and didn't know police were even called. The landlord and her significant other said no actions took place and said this has been an ongoing problem. The tenant is in the process of being evicted, she said. Officers said the tenant was intoxicated and had no visible marks. While police were on the scene, the tenant contacted police again to claim that the landlord barged into her apartment and told her to "get the fuck out." Officers advised the woman to stop making up false accusations. She went back into her apartment in an angry state, turned off all the lights and did not come back out.
