State Seeks Suspension of 10 Liquor Licenses
From Times Wire Reports
California’s Department of Alcoholic Beverage Control wants liquor licenses suspended at 10 stores accused of selling 4-inch glass tubes to undercover agents who asked for crack pipes.

Tougher laws on drug paraphernalia went into effect Jan. 1.
