Cops: Gang member stabbed during West Main Street altercation: "Philippe Robinette, 26, of Akron, Ohio stabbed 30-year-old Riverhead resident Brian Castillo three times at around 1 p.m. Monday after Mr. Castillo, a self-professed Latin King gang member, confronted Mr. Robinette, whom he believed to be a member of a rival gang, police said.
What started as a verbal altercation outside the Seafield Center substance abuse center, with Mr. Castillo cursing at Mr. Robinette, quickly turned into a physical struggle in the middle of the road, according to police. It was unclear to police who first pulled out the knife.
'There was just a lot of cops,' said an employee at the nearby Lighthouse Insurance agency. 'We seen a stretcher go out,' added a colleague.
Police said Mr. Robinette attempted to flee the scene by foot, but was apprehended a short time later. He is being held on $50,000 bail, police said"
