This is just a few of the calls I've had to deal with this week.

 

Fake bomb found in Cutchogue church

 

A beer can filled with change and rags sent the Suffolk County Bomb Squad to a Cutchogue church yesterday morning, Southold police said, after a priest found the item wrapped in electrical tape in the church's donation basket.
 
The Rev. Marian Bicz of Our Lady of Ostrabrama, a Roman Catholic church on Depot Lane, said the 9:15 a.m. service had just ended when he and other church personnel discovered the item. "I just put it outside and called the police," he said. "It was a little scary, but nothing happened, thank God."
 
Members of his congregation had already left, Bicz said. Bomb squad members found the can after they unwrapped the tape, police said. Bicz said he has no idea who could have left the item at the 100-year-old church, which has about 800 families.

Then there was this;

Cops: Greenport man had fake grenade in bar
 
October 7, 2007

A man with a penchant for French fries and bizarre talk caused a scare and evacuation of several Greenport restaurants and bars Friday night when he threatened to pull the pin on what turned out to be a fake grenade, authorities said.

 

Southold Town police arrested John Burezyk, 54, of 506 Main St., Greenport, and charged him with placing a false bomb or hazardous substance, a felony.

 

Burezyk walked into the Rhumb Line Restaurant on Friday night at about 8:50, put a old wooden ammunition box on the table and ordered a basket of French fries and a glass of water, said Terri Schultz, the waitress who served him. He wasn't drinking here. He said that he had just finished a White Russian someplace else," Schultz said. "He must have had more than one, because he was a little out there."

 

Schultz, 41, of Mattituck, said Burezyk ate a couple of fries, paid and left the restaurant, but returned about 15 minutes later and took a seat at the bar. He ordered another basket of fries - which he didn't eat - and mingled with patrons.

 

"He kept saying he was a prisoner of war in Africa, stupid stuff like that," Schultz said, adding that she had never before seen Burezyk, who wore a gray sweat shirt, camouflage-print shorts and boots.

 

His behavior turned from odd to frightening, she said, when Burezyk pulled an oblong-shaped cylinder from his pocket.

 

"He said we should meet him next door at the Whiskey Wind Tavern and he would wait for us to get there before he pulled the pin," she said.

 

Schultz said she had had enough of Burezyk's antics and asked the bartender to throw him out and call police.

 

Southold Town police officers and the Suffolk County Police Department's bomb squad arrived at about 9:30 p.m. and evacuated about 40 people from the Rhumb Line, as well as those in several other establishments on Front Street. Police could not say how many people were evacuated.

 

Bar patrons and others were allowed to return about three hours after the incident began, Schultz said.

 

Burezyk could not be reached for comment yesterday. Southold Town police could not provide arraignment information.
