A Long Island mother is accused of crashing into two cars while under the influence with her three-year-old daughter in the vehicle, Nassau County police said Thursday.
Police said Monique Williams, 35, of Hempstead, was driving a black Honda CRV on Davis Avenue in East Garden City when she crashed into a car and drove away from the scene. The crash happened just after 5 p.m. on Wednesday, according to police.
Williams is also accused of hitting an unoccupied car in a parking lot on Davis Avenue and leaving that scene, police said.
