Police: Wyandanch mom drove drunk with child in car

A Wyandanch woman faces drunken driving charges under Leandra's Law after crashing her car Thursday night with her 2-year-old as a passenger, Suffolk County police said.

Keyona Rozzell, 30, of 62 S. 30th St., was on southbound North 18th Street in Wyandanch, near Washington Avenue, at about 9:15 p.m. when she drove her 2000 Dodge into a 2000 Chevrolet.

Police determined at the scene that Rozzell was intoxicated, and she was arrested.

Her daughter had minor injuries, was treated at Good Samaritan Hospital Medical Center in West Islip and released to family, police said.

Rozzell and the two people in the Chevrolet were not injured, police said.

Rozzell is charged with driving while intoxicated and endangering the welfare of a child.

She was scheduled to be arraigned Friday at First District Court in Central Islip.

Under Leandra's Law, passed last year, the endangerment charge is a felony. The law was passed after the death of Leandra Rosado, 11, who was killed in an DWI accident after the minivan in which she was a passenger crashed on the West Side Highway in Manhattan.
