Rye PD Arrest 59 Year Old Resident for DWI
Rye Police Officers arrested Eric Greenspan, age 59 of Rye, on Wednesday evening near Playland, for driving while intoxicated (DWI) after he drove his 2023 Rivian into a residence.
At approximately 10:20pm on Wednesday, officers responded to Forest Avenue in the area of Beck Avenue for a property damage accident. An investigation determined Greenspan was operating a 2023 Rivian when he lost control of the vehicle driving off the roadway striking a residence.
Officers administered SFST (Standardized Field Sobriety Testing)’s which Greenspan failed. He was arrested and transported to Rye Police Headquarters where he provided a breath sample of .11% BAC. He was released on an appearance ticket returnable to the City of Rye Court for a later date in December.
Rye PD reminds you that booking charges are merely accusations and the defendant(s) are presumed innocent unless and until proven guilty in a court of law.
