A pair of allegedly impaired drivers were arrested during the Missouri State Highway Patrol’s recent sobriety checkpoint in Andrew County.

The checkpoint was held from 10 p.m. on September 17, 2016, to 2 a.m. on September 18, 2016. Captain James E. McDonald, commanding officer Troop H, St. Joseph says that as a result of this operation officers made two arrests for driving while intoxicated, and issued two citations and 22 warnings.

“There is no room for impaired drivers on Missouri roadways. If you choose to drink and drive, you will lose,” states Captain McDonald. “If your plans include consuming alcohol, have a sober designated driver.”
