Suffolk County Police last night arrested a man for Leandra’s Law for driving while intoxicated following a motor vehicle crash in Hauppauge with his four-year-old and six-year-old sons in the vehicle.

The two children were transported to South Shore University Hospital in Bay Shore for treatment of minor injuries and released to a family member.
The Pathfinder was impounded.
