Checkpoint for Latinos, not drunks, critics charge – Columbus, Ohio
Tagged: Ohio, populationPosted on: May 10th, 2007“Some central Ohio Latinos say they were targeted this past weekend when law-enforcement officials ran a checkpoint for drunken drivers on the Cinco de Mayo holiday, just blocks from apartment complexes with heavy immigrant populations.
Instead of the arrests netting a large number of people who had too much to drink, they largely hauled in unlicensed drivers, nearly all of them with Latino names.”
