Port Police Report: Construction Worker Uses Stick to Fend Off Driver

A construction worker literally stuck it to the man when a Port Washington driver attempted to enter an area closed to through traffic.

Port Washington police received a call from the 29-year-old driver who said a construction worker jumped in front of his vehicle and began to strike it with a stick at 7:19 p.m. July 30.

The construction worker said the area was closed to through traffic while work was being done, but the driver said there wasn't much signage or barricades indiciating it as such.

Police warned the construction worker for her behavior towards the driver.
