A. Employment Prohibited 1 : It shall be unlawful for any person under the age of twenty one (21) years to attend any bar or to sell, draw, pour or mix any alcoholic liquor in any licensed retail premises.
1. If a licensee or his agents or employees believe or have reason to believe that a sale or delivery of any alcoholic liquor is prohibited because of the age of the prospective recipient, he shall, before making such sale or delivery, demand presentation of some form of positive identification, containing proof of age, issued by a public officer in the performance of his official duties. Proof that the licensee or his employee or agent demanded, was shown, and reasonably relied upon such written evidence in any transaction forbidden by this subsection B1 is competent evidence and may be considered in any criminal prosecution therefor or in any proceedings for the suspension or revocation of any license based thereon.
2.

3. No person shall transfer, alter or deface such an identification card, use the identification card of another, carry or use a false or forged identification card, or obtain an identification card by means of false information.
