• 2017 Ohio 8909

Syllabus

The traffic stop of Defendant-appellant was supported by a reasonable suspicion that he was driving at a speed in excess of the posted speed limit. The officer did not prolong the stop beyond the time reasonably required to complete the mission of issuing a traffic citation. Further, Defendant-appellant validly consented to the search of his vehicle. Finally, the trial court appropriately limited the suppression of Johnson's statements to those made after he was handcuffed and secured in a police cruiser. Judgment affirmed.
