DUI patrol planned for St. Patrick’s Day

Don’t let too much green beer give you the blues.

The Sedgwick County Sheriff’s Office will conduct a DUI saturation patrol on St. Patrick’s Day. The patrol will operate from 11 p.m. on Tuesday to 3 a.m. on Wednesday.

The goal of the patrol is to reduce the number of intoxicated drivers, Sgt. Dan Oliver said in a prepared statement. The patrol is being funded by a grant from the Kansas Department of Transportation.
