Office announced today that an OVI checkpoint will be held from 8 to 11 p.m. tonight on Wooster Street.

The OVI checkpoint, funded by federal grant funds, is planned to deter and intercept impaired drivers.

alcohol-related injury and fatal crashes.
The State Patrol is telling those planning to drink to designate a driver or make other travel
arrangements beforehand.
