LCSO Receives Breath testing Equipment Grant

The Livingston County Sheriff’s Office has new preliminary breath testing instruments thanks to a grant through Mo-Dot.

The Livingston County Sheriff’s Office was recently awarded six preliminary breath testing instruments on a grant application to the Missouri Department of Transportation Highway Safety and Traffic Division.

The instruments will be assigned to road patrol deputies to assist with their investigations into possible driving while intoxicated crimes and are considered a vital tool in their enforcement.

Chief Deputy Michael Claypole was the grant author.
