Keith County business fails alcohol compliance check

NORTH PLATTE, Neb. — Lured In in Ogallala was the only one of 11 businesses inspected that sold alcohol to a minor during a Nebraska State Patrol alcohol compliance check in Keith and Chase counties.

All businesses checked the minor's ID, for a non-compliance rate of 9%.

The project is funded by a grant under the SAMHSA Center for Substance Abuse Prevention, Region II Human Services, and the Nebraska DHHS Division of Behavioral Health.

Businesses that sell alcohol to a minor are referred to the Nebraska Liquor Control Commission. Clerks who sell alcohol to a minor are cited for procuring alcohol for a minor. The businesses included convenience stores, restaurants, liquor stores, and bars.
