Illinois State Police Announces Results of Alcohol Countermeasure Surveillance Patrols
FAIRFIELD – Illinois State Police (ISP) Zone 8 Commander Holly Finney announces the results of Alcohol Countermeasure Enforcement (ACE) surveillance at various establishments in Wayne County during May. These details were conducted to determine which businesses may be selling alcoholic beverages to minors (persons under 21 years of age). The ultimate goals are to enforce underage drinking laws and save lives by preventing impaired driving crashes and fatalities.
Nine total locations were surveilled in Wayne County. Two establishments were involved in the sale of alcoholic beverage to a minor.
