The Findlay District of the Ohio State Highway Patrol calls their 11th annual “Light for Lives” a success. Troopers in Northwest Ohio, worked with law enforcement from 12 different counties, including Allen, Putnam, Hancock, Hardin, and Van Wert counties to stop as many motorist that they see committing traffic violations. The efforts ran from Tuesday November 22nd to the morning of Thanksgiving. During that time period, nearly 900 vehicles were stopped, and 316 citations were issues. 14 drivers were charged with OVI, and 13 stops led to drug arrests. Troopers want to remind motorist to buckle up and slow down or move over for stopped traffic.
In November 2021, the Ohio State Highway Patrol and Governor Mike DeWine announced a $15 million investment to give troopers body worn cameras and upgraded their in-car camera system. This week, installers from Axon were working on putting the system in the cruisers for the Findlay District which makes up the northwest part of the state from Lucas down to Allen County.
