COLUMBUS, Ohio Ohio gasoline prices have fallen by another 3 cents a gallon since last week while oil prices go back up.

The price checkers at AAA and the Oil Price Information Service say regular-grade gasoline is averaging about $3.66 statewide, down from $3.69 last Monday and down from the record $4.05 per gallon that Ohioans were paying a month ago.

One year ago, regular was averaging $2.66 in the state.

Gas prices have been leveling off amid new increases in oil prices. There are concerns that supplies could be disrupted by a widening conflict between Russia and Georgia over a breakaway province.
