Shreveport Police Department will hold a DWI checkpoint on Saturday, July 1, 2023.

The checkpoint will begin at 10:00 p.m. on Friday and run until 4:00 a.m. Saturday morning. The checkpoint is also part of a collaborative effort between Shreveport Police, Louisiana State Police, and Caddo Sheriff’s Office to emphasize our commitment to making the streets of our city safe for everyone.

Vehicles that enter the checkpoint will be briefly stopped by officers. This checkpoint will target drivers who may be operating a vehicle while impaired but are not limited to this offense. The Regional LHSC “BAT Mobile” will be utilized in this operation.

Funding for the checkpoint is provided by a grant from the Louisiana Highway Safety Commission as part of the continuing effort to help curb the number of impaired drivers who take to the streets each year in our community.
