Around 2 a.m., a man was stopped by the Ohio State Highway Patrol by West 95th and Detroit Avenue under suspicion of an OVI. The man ran from police and was later spotted on the RTA a few hours later. While he was on the train around 5 a.m. he was heard bragging about getting away from the police to passengers on the train, and seen with a handcuff hanging off of one of his wrists.
