A Long Island man was arrested after he took his two-year-old son on a drunken ride in a car with just three tires, said police.
Christopher Weiss, 29, was driving a 2002 black Ford Focus westbound along route 25 in Huntington, in Suffolk County shortly after midnight Friday, when a fellow motorist called 911 to report his erratic driving, said police.
The tipster followed Weiss while providing directions to police and they stopped him Commack Road near Vanderbilt Parkway in Commack about 12:30 p.m. said police.
When cops stopped him, they found his front tire had been blown out and it was shredded and he was driving on the steel rim, said police.
Cops also found the front of the vehicle had significant damage, an indication he may have been involved in a crash, said police.
In the back seat of the car they found his two-year-old son and police immediately determined Weiss had been drinking, said cops.
Weiss was arrested and charged with aggravated driving while intoxicated with a child, a felony under Leandra's Law, and child endangerment.
The law is named after Leandra Rosado, 11 of Manhattan who was killed in October, 2009, on the Henry Hudson Parkway after the mother friend, who had been drinking at a birthday party, flipped her vehicle with six children inside.
Weiss's son was unharmed and he was turned over to family members, said police.
