"MYFOXNY.COM - Police on Long Island said that an 18-year-old driver was drunk when she lost control of her car at an intersection and crashed into a brick wall. She hit the wall with so much force that her passenger was killed.
Authorities charged Daritza Lopez, 18, of Uniondale, with second-degree manslaughter, second-degree vehicular manslaughter, driving while intoxicated, third-degree aggravated unlicensed operation of a motor vehicle, and unlicensed operator.
The compact car ended up lodged in the wall of a furniture store. That made it difficult for first responders to rescue Lopez and her passenger, who died at the scene.
Police said the intoxicated and unlicensed teenager behind the wheel sideswiped a parked car on Hempstead Turnpike and then lost control of her vehicle.
Building inspectors determined that the wall was in danger of collapse so they ordered the furniture store to be shut down until it could be shored up."
