NY is mourning of two police officers died in a vehicle crash on Long Island

The NYPD reported a police officer died after a car crash on Long Island yesterday. The incident was reported around 3:15am at the intersection of Broadway Avenue and Little Plains Road in Greenvale, Suffolk County on February 8th. This was involving a Honda CRV, 2009 model and a Toyota Tundra, 2022 model. The driver of the Honda was transported to a local hospital where he died of injuries on Tuesday. He was a police officer with the 111th Precinct in Queens. The investigation is still ongoing.

This is the second incident involving a police officer in a car crash on Long Island. On February 1, Nassau County Police Officer Patricia Espinosa died after an alleged DWI incident involving a vehicle that was going 125 mph. The 20 year old driver has been charged and the case is ongoing.

On February 25, Long Island pizzerias will donate a portion of their proceeds to the Espinosa family for future expenses. Long Island stands with police officers always supportive of law enforcement.
