A graphic new billboard campaign in Montgomery County is on display, on May 20, 2014 in Dayton, Ohio.  Officials in a southwest Ohio county hope that graphic images on two large digital billboards will push heroin addicts to get help. Montgomery County officials on Tuesday introduced the billboard campaign depicting a morgue scene with a dead person's toe tag reading, "Overdosed." The signs urge addicts to call a phone number for a crisis agency to get help. County Commissioner Dan Foley said the problem demands the strong message after 225 people in the county of more than 500,000 people died from drug overdoses last year.
