In new county data since the partnership began, there have been 371 traffic stops, 59 drug seizures— mostly for marijuana— and 95 stops for window tint enforcement.
CLEVELAND — New numbers are out from Cuyahoga County about traffic stops by sheriff’s deputies in Downtown Cleveland.
Last Friday, News 5 Investigators revealed deputies stopped dozens of drivers for window tint violations.Sheriff Harold Pretel spoke with News 5 Investigators about the criticism by some calling it over-enforcement.“Not only are we getting very positive feedback, the deputies and supervisors on the ground are getting countless amounts of people walking up saying, 'Thank you,'” Pretel said.
"These seem like pretextual stops. And we’re not trying to look to have citizens of the city going about their daily lives being over-enforced here,” Warehouse District resident Sunny Nixon said.
