Marysville – The Ohio State Highway Patrol in conjunction with the Logan County Sheriff’s Office, the Washington Township Police Department, and the Russells Point
Police Department conducted a sobriety checkpoint on State Route 366 near mile post 4 in Logan County.
The sobriety checkpoint was conducted on August 26, 2023 from 8PM to 10PM.
There were 108 vehicles checked through the sobriety checkpoint, with no vehicles being diverted for suspicion of impaired driving.
In addition to the sobriety checkpoint, officers conducted saturation patrols in the vicinity of the checkpoint. During the saturation patrol, over 25 traffic stops were initiated with two of those traffic stops resulting in arrests for impaired driving.
The OVI checkpoint is funded by federal grand money. OVI checkpoints are planned to deter and intercept impaired drivers as well as educate motorist.
