The
Mansfield Police Department, in cooperation with the Texas Alcohol Beverage
Commission is utilizing a new hotline established to target underage
drinking. The new hotline will be offered to Texas citizens to report
underage drinking violations, including minors drinking at parties,
underage drinking and driving, and adults providing alcohol to minors.
In
Texas there is a "zero tolerance" in place involving underage
drinking. When many people think of this new law it is more commonly
associated with minors who have been drinking and driving. The true
message is that Mansfield Police Department will not tolerate underage
drinking of any kind. As with any program it will take a united approach
to insure any degree of success throughout our community.
1-888-843-8222
Citizens are encouraged to report underage drinking incidents
directly to the Mansfield Police Department when the drinking is occurring
by calling the Mansfield Police Department at (817) 473-0211.
The Community Resource Division may schedule group programs to introduce
the dangers of alcohol to youths with no fee attached. Contact the Community
Resource Division.
