A Coram woman suffered serious injuries early Sunday following a motor vehicle crash in Hauppauge involving a driver who was charged with driving while intoxicated, Suffolk County police said.
Eybee Guevara, 27, of Brentwood, was charged with DWI, with a previous conviction within 10 years, Suffolk police said in a news release.
Guevara was driving a 2021 Subaru south on Route 111 at 4:35 a.m. when his car struck a 2011 Honda at the intersection with Route 347, according to police.
The traffic light at the intersection was out, a department spokesperson said.
A 29-year-old Coram woman, a passenger in the Honda, was taken to a hospital with serious injuries. A 23-year-old female passenger from Smithtown and the 46-year-old male driver from Brentwood were also transported to the hospital for treatment of injuries that were not life-threatening, police said.
The Honda was a ride share, the department spokesperson said.
Guevara is scheduled to be arraigned Monday at First District Court in Central Islip.
