RALEIGH COUNTY, WV (LOOTPRESS) – The West Virginia State Police will conduct a Sobriety Checkpoint on Friday, May 24, 2024.

The checkpoint will be located along US Rt. 19, about .1 mile south of the intersection with Airport Road in the Beaver area of Raleigh County. It will be operational from 8:00 pm to 2:00 am.

The main goal of this sobriety checkpoint is to discourage impaired driving and to inform the public about the risks and legal consequences of driving under the influence of alcohol and/or drugs.

The public is encouraged to help law enforcement prevent drunk driving by reporting intoxicated or drug-impaired drivers to the local West Virginia State Police Detachment, Crime Stoppers of West Virginia, or any other law enforcement agency.

A man was recently sentenced to prison for a DUI causing injury in Bluefield.
