A Riverhead woman was charged with misdemeanor aggravated driving while intoxicated and unlicensed operation of a motor vehicle after she crashed her vehicle into a utility pole Sunday night.
Lindeysa Jimenez, 32, of Riverhead, was driving her 1998 Dodge Durango on Middle Road at about 11 p.m. when she collided with a utility pole just south of Deep Hole Road, according to police. She was the sole occupant of the vehicle.
Riverhead Town Police responded to the scene and found Jimenez to be intoxicated, according to the report. She was arrested and held overnight for morning arraignment. Town Justice Allen Smith remanded Jimenez to Suffolk County Correctional Facility on $1,000 bail. She is due back in court tomorrow.
