Phoenix DUI arrests: The St. Patrick's Day Numbers
Approximately 150 DUI arrests in the Phoenix metro area were reported for the St. Patrick's day sweep. This was roughly one-half of the total for the state. According to the article quoted below, it took 300 Arizona DUI officers to arrest 276 people in Arizona for DUI.
Given that St. P's day was mid-week this year, these numbers are not surprising.148 arrested in St. Paddy's DUI sweep: "Valley officers made nearly 150 DUI arrests on St. Patrick's Day as part of a five-day task force sweep targeting drunk drivers. The 148 arrests on the holiday accounted for nearly half the arrests made during the entire sweep. The St. Patrick's Day Task Force involved over 300 officers and deputies from the Department of Public Safety, the Pinal County Sheriff's Office, and at least eight police departments, and resulted in 276 total arrests on suspicion of driving under the influence."
