NOPD response

When you've got armed robbers on the loose, the thing to do is set up a trap to catch people with bad tail lights and expired brake tags and stuff.

ORLEANS PARISH SOBRIETY CHECKPOINT NEW ORLEANS

The NOPD Traffic Division will conduct a sobriety checkpoint beginning at 7:00 p.m. on Wednesday, September 30, 2015, to 5:00 a.m. on Thursday, October 1, 2015. Motorists will experience minimal delays and should have the proper documentation available if requested, i.e., proof of insurance, driver’s license, etc.

Notice how they've moved it up to 7:00 so they can get the happy hour crowd... you know if  they robbers don't get them first.
