East Hampton Town police announced on Monday that Paul S. Apostolides, who also lives in Islip, is being held on $150,000 bail following an arraignment in Suffolk County Criminal Court. He pleaded not guilty before Judge Barbara Kahn on Nov. 4.

The alleged incident or incidents took place in Montauk, though police did not elaborate.

Apostolides is the owner of Paulie's Tackle Shop.

Brian J. DeSesa, who works in Edward Burke Jr.'s office in Sag Harbor, is representing Apostolides, according to court records. He did not immediately return a call for comment.

Apostolides is due back in court on Dec. 2.
