Six people were arrested at a sobriety check point on the Bronx River Parkway and Butler Road last night, the Westchester County police said.

James Wallace , 59, of Harstdale; Matthew Stafford, 31, of Mahopac; Dwayne Gentles, 24, of the Bronx; Eurico Lopez, 25, of New Rochelle; Ronald Singh, 24, of Binghamton; and Brett Conchado, 31, of Yonkers were all arrested and charged with misdemeanor driving while intoxicated, police said.

A seventh man, Nuno Lopez, 26, of New Rochelle, was arrested and charged with DWI at police headquarters after he came to pick up a relative who had been arrested for the same offense, police said.

The sobriety check point was conducted in collaboration with the Scarsdale police department. More random checks will be set up over the holiday weekend in anticipation of people drinking and driving, police said.

Ahh... Job Security.

Always gotta love when they get a collateral arrest of some idiot that showed up driving drunk to pick up their friend/relative who was just arrested for the same!

Good work WCPD/SPD...making my ride home at night safer!
