CINCINNATI — A judge has ruled that Ohio can’t block one of its major cities from regulating guns, finding that a state law violates the city’s “home rule” authority.
“While state law may regulate firearms in several areas, there are several meaningful gaps within which municipalities may regulate firearms,” Branch said, adding, “provided they do not conflict with general laws.” A spokesman for the Ohio Attorney General’s Office said the office disagreed with the ruling and planned an appeal, but it wasn’t clear Friday when that might happen.
Officials have said the measures are intended to give law enforcement more options to address gun violence. Any charges brought under the ordinances would be misdemeanors, punishable by up to one year in jail.
