Kimball Police hold a DUI checkpoint with a Christmas twist

KIMBALL, W.Va. (WVVA) - Twas the night before Christmas Eve, and on Kimball’s streets, police officers were giving out, holiday treats.

Instead of handing out tickets, Kimball police decided to switch things up and spread some holiday cheer. The department was able to give out 40 turkeys, 40 hams, 500 toys, and haircut vouchers, all provided by local vendors.

For once, drivers enjoyed being stopped by the police. Many of whom, weren’t expecting the kind gesture

And for those officers involved, it gives them just as much joy, to give back this season.
