For reprints or lamination services, Hurley Police to crack down on drunken motorists contact the Daily Globe at 906-932-2211 during the “Drive Sober or Get Pulled Over” campaign To combat drunken driving, Hurley Police will join other law enforcement agencies throughout Wisconsin participating in the “Drive Sober or Get Pulled Over” national campaign from Dec. 18, 2015 to Jan. 3, 2016. “Although drunken driving is 100 percent preventable, on average someone is killed or injured in an alcohol-related crash in Wisconsin every three hours,” says Chief Erspamer. “And while celebrating the holidays, people may be tempted to drive when they are impaired. During the Drive Sober or Get Pulled Over campaign, our officers will be out in force to arrest drunken drivers before they kill or injure themselves or an innocent victim.” Rather than risk a drunken driving arrest or crash, the Hurley Police urges you to follow these common sense suggestions: 2002 DODGE 2015 KIA SORENTO • Choose a sober designated driver before you start drinking. 1500 4X4 LX AWD • If you’re feeling buzzed, you likely are over the 0.08 BAC limit and should not drive. 4 door, fully loaded, 4 door, V-8, auto., • Take a taxicab or ask a sober friend to drive you home.

Over the past six months, the coalition has launched more than 600 airstrikes, hitting about 2,500 different targets, U.S. Army Col. Steve Warren, the Baghdad-based spokesman for the coalition, told reporters on Tuesday. He said at its peak there were up to 1,000 IS fight- ers in Ramadi, and that only 150-250 remain. But while the airstrikes even- tually helped flush out the mili- tants, they smashed large parts of the city into rubble. The city has suffered “huge devastation,” Al-Belawi said.
