Alcohol Stings in Sully District
Sully
Police District - On Thursday, December 10, officers from the Sully
District Station Neighborhood Patrol Unit, conducted stings at several
locations in the Sully and Chantilly areas of Fairfax County. The sting
was part of the Safe December youth alcohol operation which was conducted
using a county police cadet dressed in plain clothing to purchase
alcohol. The cadet entered stores and attempted to purchase alcohol. If
asked whether he was 21 years old, the cadet was to respond with his true
age and/or date of birth. If asked for identification, he was to tell the
clerk that he had no identification with him. If the sale of alcohol took
place, the plain-clothed officer would take possession of the alcohol
from the cadet and make the appropriate charge(s), along with the
assistance of the uniformed officer assigned to the team.
As a result of the sting operation, 23 locations were entered, with three arrests made for the illegal sale of alcohol to a minor. Those offenses occurred at Citi Mart, located at 14631 Lee Highway, Prime Mart, located at 4300 Willard Road, and CVS, located at 13031 Lee Jackson Memorial Highway.
The
stings were conducted using one team consisting of one plain-clothed
officer, one uniformed officer, and one cadet.
