Metro Police will conduct a sobriety checkpoint starting Thursday night in the east valley.
The checkpoint will run from 7 p.m. Thursday to 3 a.m. Friday on a road where there have been 26 drunk driving arrests and crashes in the past six months, police said.
“The checkpoint will focus on identifying drug- and alcohol-impaired drivers to include juveniles, young adults, and older adults, before they get involved in a collision, thereby increasing the safety for all Southern Nevada motorists,” police said in a news release.
