A 32-year-old man arrested after a car crash that killed a woman and three young boys in rural NSW has been charged with domestic violence offences.

Police investigating the crash near the NSW Riverina town of Leeton have charged a man with domestic violence-related offences.

Police were told the rear door of a home in the small village of Yanco, was allegedly kicked in and a person was threatened shortly after 11pm on Tuesday.

"About 15 minutes later, a vehicle being driven along Research Road left the road and crashed, resulting in the deaths of a 36-year-old woman and three boys aged 10, 11 and 12," NSW Police said in a statement on Thursday.

No charges have been laid over the crash itself but detectives arrested a 32-year-old man and a 50-year-old woman at a Griffith unit about 8am on Wednesday.

They were taken to Griffith Police Station where the man was charged with two counts of stalking and intimidating with the intention to cause fear of physical harm as well as one count of aggravated break and enter.

He has been refused bail to appear in Griffith Local Court on Thursday.

The woman was released without charge, pending further inquiries.

Police are appealing to anyone with information or dashcam vision relevant to the investigation to contact Griffith Police.

The 36-year-old woman's Hyundai Getz hit a pole and rolled down an embankment into a water channel at Yanco on Tuesday night, killing everyone in the car.

Police said the victims were related but could not confirm if the woman was the mother of all the children.

Yanco is a village in Leeton Shire with a population of around 400.
