A Freeport man pleaded guilty Monday to fatally striking a pedestrian while driving drunk, according to the Nassau County district attorney.

Tyshaun Johashen admitted to hitting a 24-year-old woman who was crossing Babylon Turnpike in May.

News 12 is told Johashen’s license was suspended at the time of the crash for pending DWI charges.

He is set to be sentenced in October and faces six to 18 years in prison.
