MASTIC BEACH (AP)—Police on eastern Long Island said they have arrested three people on aggravated harassment charges after they kicked and hit a victim while uttering anti-gay remarks.
Authorities say Nora Mitzner, 21, and Lindsay McBeth, 25, pleaded not guilty at their arraignments in First District Court in Central Islip on Tuesday. McBeth did not have an attorney, and Mitzner was represented by Legal Aid, which does not comment on pending cases.
The third suspect is awaiting arraignment.
Suffolk County Police responded to a 911 call of a fight Monday night in Mastic Beach. They say the trio kicked, hit and pushed the unidentified woman while making remarks about her sexual orientation.
