TAMPA - The father of a little girl whose mother was killed in a drunk-driving crash on the Selmon Crosstown Expressway has been charged with driving under the influence, police said.

Joshua Moll gave Tampa police déjà vu early this morning, after he twice drove a 2004 Dodge Ram through the parking lot of a restaurant at West Platt Street and South Packwood Avenue after security asked him to leave, Tampa police said.

Officers said they stopped Moll, 26, of Tampa, nearby and noticed he was impaired.

He failed field sobriety tests and was arrested, police said. Booking information was not immediately available.

Moll is the father of Summer Moll, 5, whose mother, Jennifer O'Boyle, died in a head-on crash on the expressway in September. Cheryl Maria Riemann, 25, of Ruskin is charged with DUI manslaughter and vehicular homicide in that wreck. Riemann is being held without bail at Orient Road Jail and awaiting trial.

Summer left Tampa General Hospital last month to live with her maternal grandparents. Grandmother Tammy Rosian said today that the child was back in the intensive-care unit for a procedure.

Rosian had no comment on Moll's arrest.
