El Paso Police had their hands full dealing with multiple incidents on St. Patrick's Day across the city.

St. Patrick's Day turned deadly and unlucky for a few El Pasoans as El Paso Police responded to four separate incidents, including a pedestrian death on I-10, a stabbing, another traffic accident involving a motorcyclist, and another accident across the city that involved a car crashing into a home.  

St. Patrick's Day was the first holiday that many El Paso bars reopened, welcoming patrons back after being closed due to the pandemic.  

As El Paso Police prepared for a long night ahead of St. Patrick's Day, multiple incidents overlapped each other as four different situations occurred before 10 p.m., stretching from West El Paso to the Lower Valley.
