Drunk driving checkpoint tonight in Butler County

There will be a drunk driving checkpoint in Liberty Twp. tonight.

An OVI checkpoint will be held at 9 p.m. on Ohio 4 near the intersection of Kyles-Station Road in Liberty Twp., according to the Ohio State Highway Patrol.

Members of the Butler County OVI Task Force, Butler County Sheriff’s Office and the Ohio State Highway Patrol will staff the checkpoint as well as have nearby saturation patrols.

The state patrol warns if you plan to consume alcohol, designate a driver or make other travel arrangements prior to drinking.

“Don’t let another life be lost for the senseless and selfish act of getting behind the wheel impaired,” the state patrol said in a statement.

OVI checkpoints are funded by federal grant funds and are designed to deter and intercept impaired drivers.
