Let's hope nothing goes haywire this time around, unlike what happened back at a May 22 DUI checkpoint ...
A 53-year-old North Hollywood resident nearly killed himself at a police checkpoint located at the intersection of Indian Hill Boulevard-Dartmouth Avenue.
At approximately 8:05 p.m., the man was diverted into a 2nd lane when police discovered he was driving on a suspended license and had a warrant out for his arrest. While in the vehicle, the 53-year-old pulled out a knife and started slashing his throat, causing multiple lacerations in his neck.
Officers attempted to get the man to stop but he refused. Police then used a taser on the man to get the knife away.
Paramedics arrived shortly after police seized the knife and transferred the man to Pomona Valley Hospital, where he was diagnosed in serious condition due to the loss of blood. After being treated and undergoing a psychiatric evaluation, the man was later released.
Police later issued the man a citation for the warrant and his suspended driver’s license.

Sobriety checkpoint tonight
The Claremont Police Department will be running a sobriety checkpoint at an undisclosed location in town. Police will pull over motorists to verify valid driver licenses and to make sure nobody is driving drunk. The operation will run from 6 p.m. to 2 a.m.
At the last sobriety checkpoint in April, a man ditched his car and ran off on foot but was apprehended. He was driving with a suspended license and told cops he didn't want to get his car impounded again. He was arrested and the car was impounded.
Also, a group of protesters tipped off drivers approaching the checkpoint to turn around with large warning signs. A COURIER reader took exception to the idea of protesting police's efforts to keep drunk drivers off the road. Read her comments here.
