WEST PEORIA, Ill. – Three West Peoria businesses are in trouble for allegedly selling alcohol to minors.
That’s according to the Peoria County Sheriffs Department. They say employees of two Express Liquors stores, along with Farmington Food and Liquor received citations for Illegal Sale of Alcohol to a Minor during checks Thursday.
In a Facebook post, Captain Chris Watkins says it’s important for businesses to have policies in place that prevent underage alcohol sales.
The names of the sellers in question were not released.
“We are trying to prevent the tragedies we have witnessed with underage drinking,” said Watkins.
