One driver was ticketed for driving under the influence at DUI checklanes in operation following the Smoky Hill River Festival’s Festival Jam Thursday night, and five additional CA DUI arrests were made by patrol officers.
Between 10 and 11:30 p.m. Thursday at Front and Crawford streets, 93 cars entered the checklanes and several drivers were evaluated, said Capt. Mike Sweeney of the Salina Police Department. No one was cited for DUI, but two drivers were ticketed for having open containers of alcohol in their vehicles.
Between midnight and 2:10 a.m. Friday, 90 cars entered a checklane at Ninth and Crawford streets, Sweeney said. One DUI arrest was made, and two people were cited for open container.
Sweeney said police received few reports of problems at the jam in Oakdale Park. He said one 53-year-old woman was arrested for battery on a law enforcement officer and trespass after she hit a policeman on the chest and refused to leave the festival grounds when asked.
