More than 35 officers from six different police agencies conducted a DUI saturation patrol on Friday, pulling over 774 vehicles.

The patrol was conducted in the area of 6500 South and Redwood Road from 10:30 p.m. to 2 a.m. on Saturday morning.

According to the Utah Highway Patrol, officers made one DUI arrest with 14 other drug- and alcohol-related arrests, including minors in possession of alcohol. Four vehicles were impounded and 33 other drivers were either given citations or warnings.

The saturation patrol took place at a time when many are attending Halloween holiday parties.
