Two young women tragically lost their lives in a car accident on the Southern State Parkway in Oyster Bay, Long Island, late Sunday night. The incident occurred around 11 p.m. when a speeding driver, impaired by drugs, lost control of the vehicle and crashed into a tree.
The victims were identified as 21-year-old Haily Dsouza and 23-year-old Crystal Alba-Figueroa. They were passengers in a 2016 Dodge Dart being driven by 19-year-old Jaden Dsouza, who was reportedly driving recklessly, weaving in and out of traffic at a high rate of speed. According to state police, the vehicle suddenly veered off the road and struck a tree located on the shoulder of the parkway.
