  • Legal Action: Several retailers were found in violation of the law and have been issued fines, with some facing further legal proceedings.
  • Public Awareness Campaign: In addition to enforcement actions, EAGLE Force is spearheading a public awareness campaign to educate both retailers and the public about the dangers of e-cigarette usage among minors.

According to a spokesperson for EAGLE Force, "Our primary goal is to protect the health and well-being of young people in our community. We are committed to ensuring that retailers adhere to the law and that minors do not have access to these harmful products."

Warning to Retailers: EAGLE Force has issued a stern warning to all retailers, emphasizing the legal repercussions of selling e-cigarettes to minors. Retailers are urged to verify the age of purchasers and ensure compliance with all relevant regulations.
