From Major Keleti, Commander, Special Operations Division, PGPD:
I wanted to keep everyone informed on the progress we are making on our Route 210 traffic initiative. The Traffic Enforcement Section assigned to the Special Operations Division conducted speed enforcement on Indian Head Highway between December 29th and January 3. Below is the statistical data from our enforcement efforts.
I would like to highlight our activity for the week.
- Officers arrested 3 individuals for DUI. The evidentiary breath tests were .19%, and 2 refusals.
- A traffic stop for an inoperable headlight resulted in the seizure of 286 grams of suspected marijuana as the driver did not have a license, the tags were issued to another vehicle, no insurance and the vehicle was not registered.
- Lastly, another traffic stop was conducted for traffic violations and tint. The officer located a handgun under the driver seat as the driver was charged accordingly.
Happy New Year and as always Please stay safe!
