Howard County announced Monday that they arrested 21 people for driving under the influence during increased patrols over the St. Patrick’s Day weekend.
“Thankfully, we'll never know if one of those drivers might have injured himself or someone else, or worse,” officials wrote on the Howard County Police Department Facebook Page.
Carroll County officials were also among the law enforcement agencies watching out for drivers under the influence over the holiday, officials reported Monday.
Two drivers were arrested in Carroll County during a weekend sobriety checkpoint, law enforcement officials said.
A sobriety checkpoint earlier this month in North Laurel netted five driver arrests, according to Howard County Police.
