Bossier Sheriff’s Office and Louisiana State Police join forces for Sobriety Checkpoint!

On Saturday, Feb. 10, Deputies with the Bossier Parish Sheriff’s Office, and Troopers from Louisiana State Police Troop G combined forces to conduct a sobriety checkpoint in the 900 block of Highway 80 in Haughton. A total of 828 vehicles were screened, 1,105 people were contacted, and deputies conducted an additional traffic stop. 2 citations for various violations were issued and 13 field sobriety tests were administered resulting in 2 DWI arrests. 1 additional arrest was made for drug possession. “These sobriety checkpoints help raise public awareness of impaired driving which helps reduce the number of alcohol related/impaired crashes every year. These checkpoints are meticulously planned and coordinated to remove impaired drivers from the highways and roads which makes it safer for everyone,” said Sheriff Whittington. “Out of the 1,105 people contacted by deputies and officers during the checkpoint, only 2 were arrested for being impaired. This is proof positive that the public understand the dangers of impaired driving and that these checkpoints help keep the roads in Bossier Parish safe.”
