Between midnight and 2:00 a.m., Indiana State Police, Warrick County Sheriff’s Office and Chandler Police conducted a sobriety checkpoint on SR 62 east of Gardner Road. During the two-hour period, 46 vehicles drove through the checkpoint. Troopers did not find any impaired drivers during the two-hour period, but they did issue two citations for restraint violations and one citation for driving while suspended.

Indiana State Police and Chandler Police also conducted a saturation patrol in the vicinity of the checkpoint, which resulted in two additional citations and 14 warnings being issued. During one of those traffic stops, troopers found a small amount of marijuana and paraphernalia. James Mosely, 44, and Chrysti Scearce, 47, both from Chandler, were cited and released for possession of marijuana and possession of drug paraphernalia.

The Indiana State Police are committed to traffic safety and will continue to conduct saturation patrols and sobriety checkpoints to apprehend impaired drivers and to deter others from drinking and driving.

  1. What a load of crap checkpoints are! Couldn’t find any drunks so they made sure to hand out some other tickets; might as well since they’ve already stopped you and invaded your privacy.

  2. Sad waste of resources. Remember that when these agencies come to the public cup in hand. Show them they’re not immune from budget cuts.

    • Nah they’ll cut WIC first. Poor children don’t have as much lobbying $$$$ as cops do.
