Liquor Store
On August 20th of 2011, the Alcoholic Beverages Control Commission conducted an undercover sting operation at City Spirits North liquor store.
A field operator from the Commission sent an underage operative into the store to purchase a 40-ounce can of Miller Lite. Without asking for identification, the clerk, who has worked at the store for 10 years, sold the alcohol to the minor.
To prevent incidents like this from happening again, employees have been retrained and scanning systems will be used to check identification.
