The NOPD geniuses had DUI checkpoint setup last night Tchoup/Calliope at that exact time.
Infuriates me every time I see this. 10-15 cops for 6-7 hours trolling for one or two DUIs & old brake tags. While violent crime is lurking around every other corner.
Saddens me that our police are so misdirected. It's a Thursday for fricks sake, in August, one of the slowest times of the year for drunk patrons.

Thats why they did it at that time. Checkpoints are evidently required..... They certainly wouldnt do a checkpoint during Mardi Gras or Jazzfest... That woukd deter tourism.

Fwiw Jared, I agree with you

+1, and the criminals know when to take advantage. With as undermanned as NOPD is there's no reason to have that many cops tied up like that.
