Gas prices up slightly in Ohio as work week begins

COLUMBUS, Ohio (AP) — Ohio drivers are seeing a bump in gas prices at the pump compared with a week ago.

A gallon of regular gas in Ohio was listed at an average of $3.67 in Monday's survey from auto club AAA, the Oil Price Information Service and Wright Express. That's 9 cents more than last Monday's average of $3.58.

The national average for regular gas is almost $3.69 per gallon, down about a cent compared with a week ago.

The price of oil slid Monday as investors grew worried about possible fallout from a plan to pay for a bailout for cash-strapped Cyprus by slapping a tax on deposits in the country's banks.
