On June 5, 2008, the Sioux Falls Police Department conducted a compliance check of 23 off-sale alcohol establishments within the Sioux Falls city limits.
Of the 23 establishments checked, 3 made a sale to a person under the age of 21. The clerk making the sale was issued a citation for furnishing alcohol to a person 18-20 years old (SDCL 35-9-1.1), with a mandatory court appearance required.
Businesses making sales to underage persons may face fines, suspensions, or loss of their liquor or malt licenses. The businesses making the sales were:
-
Gas Stop at 3900 North Cliff Avenue
-
Kum & Go at 412 North Sycamore Avenue
-
Get-NGo at 2217 East Tenth Street In an effort to protect the young people of our community, the Sioux Falls Police Department will continue to do random alcohol compliance checks of all on-sale and off-sale alcohol establishments within the city limits. |
