Authorities Begin Route 35 Crackdown

GREENE COUNTY, Ohio —

Troopers are stepping up patrols on a local road where two of their colleagues were struck by vehicles.

Starting this week, state troopers from posts in Greene and Montgomery counties will be stepping up enforcement on U.S 35.

They will be looking for impaired drivers, speeders and aggressive driving.

Last month, two state troopers were hurt when their cruisers were struck by suspected drunk drivers.

Troopers said U.S. 35 is consistently a top crash route in Greene and Montgomery counties.

The enforcement effort will take place mostly at night and early morning hours..
