OHP: Franklin County Second In Ohio For Heroin Seizures

The Ohio Highway Patrol ranks Franklin County second in the state for heroin seizures. The Patrol's latest annual crime analysis report shows meth seizures in the state are up more than a thousand percent. Heroin seizures are up more than 300 percent. Other opiate seizures are up 90 percent. The Patrol attributes the increases to greater demand. Madison county is ranked third. Preble County leads the state in seizures.
