The La Porte County Sheriff’s Office and the La Porte County DUI Task Force will be increasing enforcement and patrols around prom and post-prom sites this spring. La Porte County Sheriff John Boyd said that the goal is to deter alcohol use and eliminate alcohol-related crashes among La Porte County High School prom attendees.
The enforcements will take place between May 7 through June 2 during La Porte, New Prairie, Michigan City, Westville, La Lumiere, Marquette, La Crosse, and South Central prom events.
The La Porte County Sheriff’s Office maintains a zero-tolerance policy toward the consumption and possession of alcoholic beverages by minors. Those and any others who provide alcohol to minors will be targeted and jailed.
