Fresno police arrested seven drivers on suspicion of driving under the influence on Super Bowl Sunday, the department said.

Police said drivers charged with a first-time DUI face an average of $13,500 in fines and penalties, along with a suspended license.

The Fresno Police Department said it will hold another DUI enforcement operation on Feb. 21, and conduct a series of DUI enforcement patrols and checkpoints throughout the year to keep roadways safe.

Funding for the program was provided by a grant from the California Office of Traffic Safety through the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration.
