Drunk driving arrests were down across the Des Moines metro area New Years Eve, something police attribute to lousy weather and awareness of increased enforcement. 6-people were arrested for OWI, in Des Moines Friday night and early Saturday, while West Des Moines had only one OWI arrest. Both departments tell the Des Moines Register those numbers were lower than usual, although they didn't have stats available for prior years. In Polk County, 13 people were jailed on OWI charges.
