Police here are ramping up patrols in anticipation of New Year’s eve.
Police Chief Danny Semmes urges drivers to stay safe on the roadways.
“I would recommend that anyone going out to celebrate have a designated driver or call Uber or Lyft,” he said. “Always have a ride lined up in case you have had too much to drink.”
Semmes said his department would be out in full force for the holiday weekend.
“Three-quarters of our department will be out looking for impaired drivers and will be enforcing DWI laws as strictly as possible,” he said.
