Tough anti-smoking law to go into effect in August

Beginning Aug. 21, minors under age 18 caught with cigarettes or other tobacco products can be fined $25, required to complete an approved anti-smoking program or ordered to perform five hours of community service. Minors who don't follow court orders can have driving privileges restricted for 90 days.
