A New York State police officer from the Lake Success station arrested a Kings Park man Sunday night for drunken driving on the Northern State Parkway with his two children in the car, state police said.
Anthony Martarana, 30, was stopped at 10:50 p.m. May 3 for speeding on the Northern State Parkway near exit 32 in Westbury, after which the state trooper smelled alcohol on Martarana’s breath, police said.
Martarana failed a sobriety test, police said, and had a .08 percent BAC according to a breath test.
Two children — one three and the other five — were in the car at the time of his arrest, according to a statement from police. They were turned over to a family member.
Martarana is charged with felony DWI with children younger than 16 under Leandra’s Law and a misdemeanor charge of endangering the welfare of a child as well as traffic violations, according to police.
