Cole County DWI checkpoint nets 9 arrests


Jefferson City, MO
Law enforcement at a DWI checkpoint in Jefferson City Saturday night didn't have to wait long for their first offender. It took just three minutes.

The Cole County Sheriff's Department along with Jefferson City Police and the Highway Patrol stopped cars in the 36-hundred block of Highway 50. Almost three-hundred cars were checked.

In all the sobriety checkpoint netted nine violations, including three for driving while intoxicated, one for possession of drugs, and another for an undocumented alien.

A grant from MODOT helped fund the checkpoint.
