Authorities in the Fargo-Moorhead area

are dedicating a DUI crackdown to a family killed in a July wreck.

Relatives of the Deutscher family urged an end to drinking and driving Monday and

called for stiffer penalties for offenders.

Allison Deutscher; her husband, Aaron Deutscher, and the

couple's 18-month-old daughter, Brielle, were killed July 6 when a

pickup truck driven by 28-year-old Wyatt Klein, of Jamestown,

collided with the Deutschers' SUV west of Jamestown. Klein, who

also died in the wreck, was driving the wrong way on Interstate 94.

Lynn Mickelson, Allison Deutscher's father, says the accident

was 100 percent preventable

Law enforcement agencies across the nation are taking part in

the ``Drive Sober or Get Pulled Over'' campaign, which runs Friday

through Labor Day weekend.
