On Tuesday, July 12, 2022, the Port Huron Police Department conducted a compliance check operation focusing on underage sales of alcohol to minors.
During the operation police sent underage decoys into 32 Port Huron stores licensed by the Michigan Liquor Control Commission to sell alcohol. Of the 32 businesses checked, 29 were found to be in compliance by refusing to sell alcohol to the underage decoys.
Three businesses were not in compliance and were cited for selling alcohol to a minor:
- Pit Stop Party Store, 1635 Pine Grove Ave, Port Huron
- Kroger, 2907 Krafft Road, Port Huron
- White Cloud Smoke Shop, 1122 10th Street, Port Huron
The Port Huron Police Department would like to thank all of the stores that were found to be in compliance and encourage all licensed establishments to check ID’s to prevent the use of alcohol by underage minors.
