Former Buckeye Cited For OVI, Posession Of Drug Paraphernalia

Westerville Police
/

Franklin County Sheriff's deputies have cited former NFL and Ohio State quarterback Troy Smith for possession of drug paraphernalia and operating a vehicle under the influence. Deputies say the 33-year-old was asked to move his car to a diversion area at a Columbus checkpoint Friday after they detected a marijuana odor. Deputies say Smith refused to take field sobriety tests. Smith was issued a summons to appear in court. Smith was charged with drug and alcohol violations following a stop in Westerville last year.

Jim has been with WCBE since 1996. Before that he worked as a reporter at another Columbus radio station, and for three newspapers in Southwest Florida.
