No improper cigarettes sales found during check
Police, conducting a discount cigarettes enforcement operation last week, found no incidents of minors being allowed to purchase cheap cigarettes products, authorities said.
Minors, acting as decoys, visited about 40 cheap cigarettes retail businesses throughout the city, trying to make the illegal purchases, Sgt. Matias Pardo said.
"There were zero violators," he said.
Officers also conducted compliance checks with nearly 10 bars or restaurant-bars to ensure there was no smoking cigarettes within 20 feet of main entrances to the establishments, police said.
