The two victims of the crash were identified as Roslyn students and young tennis stars Drew Hassenbein and Ethan Falkowitz.
A funeral was held Friday for one of the two teens killed when a wrong-way driver slammed into their car in Jericho.A funeral for Drew Hassenbein, also 14, is scheduled for Sunday.
"Probably one of the most catastrophic scenes I've seen in a long time," Det. Capt. Stephen Fitzpatrick said. "It was almost like the car exploded, that's how fast the driver hit that car with these kids in it." Once Singh's Dodge hit the Alfa Romeo, the teens' car also hit a Volvo with a woman and teenager inside. Those victims were treated at the scene for minor injuries, officials said.
Nassau Police Commissioner Patrick Ryder called the double fatal crash "horrific" and vowed DWI enforcement to "take back our streets this summer...two tragic lives lost because somebody chose to drink and drive and end up going the wrong way. We cant have it, we wont have it here in this county."
