A 33-year-old Massapequa man was killed early Saturday morning in a single-car crash in Westbury that also injured three of his passengers, Nassau County police said.
Authorities said Michael Deveny was driving a 1998 Nissan Altima east on School Street at 4:45 a.m. when the car careened into a utility pole before slamming into a tree and a stop sign. Deveny was thrown from the car, police said, causing a fatal injury. He was pronounced dead at the scene, police said.
His three passengers, two men and a woman, had to be extracted from the vehicle by Nassau police’s Emergency Service Unit and Westbury firefighters, police said.
All three were treated at nearby hospitals for non-life-threatening injuries, police said.
Police did not say what caused the driver to lose control. The investigation into the crash is ongoing, police said.
