Police plan for Placentia DUI checkpoint Saturday night

The Orange County register is reporting that the Placentia police are setting up a checkpoint Saturday night focusing on drunk drivers and drivers without licenses.

The Police Department timed the checkpoint to coincide with graduation parties but did not did not reveal a location. Generally in order for DUI checkpoint stops to be constitutionally valid, police must reveal that there is a checkpoint planned and where it is located. It will be interesting to see if any of the arrests made at the checkpoint are challenged on these grounds.
