Deutschle Receives DUI Enforcement Award

Officer Gary Deutschle Recognized for DUI Enforcement Efforts

At the September 28, 2009 Village Board Meeting, Officer Gary Deutschle received an Illinois Department of Transportation’s Division of Traffic Safety (IDOT/DTS) “DUI Enforcement Award” for his efforts in the area of driving under the influence (DUI) enforcement.

The award program provides a continuing recognition system for officers who excel in arresting impaired drivers. Awards are presented to any police officer who has made at least 25 DUI arrests since the beginning of 2001. As an officer’s DUI arrests accumulate, he or she will be rewarded with new awards that indicate the different levels the officer has achieved. IDOT/DTS is proud to recognize the officers who make our roads safer by aggressively enforcing DUI laws.

Having achieved a total of 50 DUI arrests since joining the Department in 2006, this marks the second time Officer Deutschle has received the award.  He is one of only six Barrington Hills officers ever to receive such recognition.
