MOUNT VERNON — Gas prices at the pump across Ohio have been on the rise for a while, but Russia’s invasion this week — and other more natural factors — could make those prices rise even more.

The American Automobile Association reported Friday that Ohio’s average price at the pump for regular gas rose $0.01 from Thursday. It’s up $0.11 from last week and $0.27 from a month ago.

At this time last year, the average price at Ohio pumps was $2.61. The average Friday was $3.33, according to AAA.
