BOARDMAN

The township police department will be supplementing its regular patrols with high-visibility enforcement patrols throughout this Labor Day weekend.

Officers will be targeting all violators for aggressive driving offenses, operating vehicle while impaired-related violations and seat-belt usage.

The department’s efforts are in partnership with state and local law enforcement and highway safety officials through Labor Day weekend taking part in the national impaired-driving enforcement crackdown: “Driver Sober or Get Pulled Over.”

The funding is provided by the Mahoning County OVI Task Force and the Ohio Department of Public Safety’s Ohio Traffic Safety Office.
