<\/p>\nAn 11-year-old boy was airlifted after being seriously injured when the car he was in was hit head-on by an alleged drunk driver in East Atlantic Beach yesterday evening, Nassau County police said.<\/p>\n
\tInvestigators said Job Giuliana, 30, was driving eastbound on Beech Street when he struck a car going west on the same road at the intersection of Scott Drive around 5:30 p.m.<\/p>\n
\t“It’s a dangerous corner here,” East Atlantic Beach resident John Giammona said. “A lot of accidents have happened in the past.”<\/p>\n
\tThree people were in that second car, including the driver, a 52-year-old man, a 49-year-old female passenger and the child.<\/p>\n
\t<\/p>\n
Nassau County police said Giuliana suffered a severe injury and that first responders had to apply a tourniquet to his left leg at the scene. The Long Beach Fire Department took him to the hospital, where police said they determined he was intoxicated.<\/p>\n
\tThe 11-year-old sustained severe body trauma and was airlifted with his mother, who had body pain, according to police and the Long Beach Fire Department.<\/p>\n
\t“I remember it was about six something, it was dark and a helicopter flew right over our house,” East Atlantic Beach resident Julia Giammona said. “It looked horrible.”<\/p>\n
\tThe driver of the car that was struck had a cut to his head, was taken to the hospital, treated and released.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n
Nassau County police charged Giuliana was second-degree vehicular assault, second-degree assault, two counts of third-degree assault, driving while intoxicated and second-degree reckless endangerment.<\/p>\n
\t\u201cPeople travel at a high rate of speed,” one East Atlantic Beach man told News 12. “50 to 60 miles an hour, the speed limit is 30, so speed is an issue here.\u201d<\/p>\n
\tOfficials said he will be arraigned at First District Court when medically practical. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"An 11-year-old boy was airlifted after being seriously injured when the car he was in was hit head-on…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":92576,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[33],"tags":[131,133,132],"class_list":["post-92575","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-long-beach","tag-long-beach","tag-long-beach-headlines","tag-long-beach-news"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/92575","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=92575"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/92575\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/92576"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=92575"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=92575"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=92575"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
