Police say a Connecticut man is facing charges after his car crashed, injuring two passengers.
Westerly police tell WPRI-TV the crash happened at about 8:40 p.m. Friday on Route 78 near the Connecticut state line.
The driver, 32 year-old Leonidas Kontogouris of Montville, Connecticut, wasn't hurt. Police said he faces charges including driving while intoxicated resulting in bodily injury, driving on a suspended or revoked license, refusal to submit to a chemical test, carrying a pistol without a permit and carrying a weapon while intoxicated.
Witnesses said the car was speeding when it went out of control and overturned. Police said a 22-year-old woman and a 28-year-old man were ejected. They were flown to Rhode Island Hospital. Police said Saturday they didn't have information on their conditions.
It's not known if Kontogouris has an attorney.
