Glendale police to conduct DUI checkpoint Friday night

Glendale police plan to conduct a sobriety checkpoint Friday night at an undisclosed location in the city.

In addition to checking for motorists driving under the influence of alcohol or drugs, officers at the checkpoint, which starts at 8 p.m., also will be looking for those without valid licenses.

The grant-funded checkpoint is part of a statewide law enforcement campaign aimed at curbing DUI driving during summer, officials said.

Agencies throughout Los Angeles County will be conducting roving patrols and checkpoints starting Friday until Sept. 3.
