The raid was in Boyertown, Pottstown, Collegeville, Royersford, Ambler, Lansdale, Harleysville, Horsham, Hatboro, Norristown and more.
Eight defendants on the county’s “DUI Most Wanted” list were arrested in an overnight raid Tuesday, Montgomery County Sheriff Russell Bono announced Tuesday. Three more turned themselves in after the raid, Bono said.
The raid is a result of a joint DUI Task Force that was formed in December with the goal of catching DUI defendants who have evaded court hearings, fines and sentences, the sheriff’s department said.
The operation covered Boyertown, Pottstown, Collegeville, Royersford, Ambler, Lansdale, Harleysville, Horsham, Hatboro, Norristown and Conshohocken.
