Three off-licences in the Bradford area have been caught selling alcohol to a 14-year-old boy in a sting operation. The shops in Bradford and Keighley were targeted at the weekend after complaints from members of the public, West Yorkshire Trading Standards said.
Inquiries were continuing into the stores caught out, a spokesman said.
The operation was one of many being carried out as part of the government's strategy for tackling the mis-use of alcohol and loutish behaviour.
