Drinking on the River Still a Problem

Now that the warm weather is definitely here, hundreds of people are flocking to the Deschutes River in downtown Bend, and police have a warning. Officers want to remind those cruising down the Deschutes that they have up to three units patrolling the river at all times to spot those who might be trying to conceal drinks.

Drinking alchohol while floating the river can impair your judgment and reaction time if you fall into the river.Plus,  they also don't want people jumping off the bridges, roads or rocks into the water.
