Lt. Brian Ohlin of
the Brunswick Division of Police talks about the OVI task force.
Brunswick Division of Police has done a great job with heading up the OVI task force.
On February 25, 2010 the Medina County OVI Task Force was presented an award from the Ohio City and County Manager’s Association for Intergovernmental Cooperation. Brunswick Police Chief Carl DeForest, Lt Joshua Swindell of the Ohio State Highway Patrol and Brunswick Lt Brian Ohlin attended the award presentation at the OCMA Annual Conference in Columbus.
The fact that all law enforcement agencies in Medina County participate in the OVI Task Force, currently with no grant dollars to fund the operation, and the demonstrated success of the program were reasons cited for the award. The task force officers are sworn in by Medina County Sheriff Neil Hassinger as Reserve Deputies and utilize saturation patrols in identified problem areas to patrol for impaired drivers. The program was founded in 2008 and is continuing in 2010.
