Underage drinkers with false identifications busted in San Luis Obispo

May 4, 2026

By KAREN VELIE

Officers cited 29 people for having false or fraudulent identifications at a restaurant popular with college students on Sunday evening in San Luis Obispo.

Shortly after 9 p.m., California Alcohol Beverage Control agents observed a large group of youthful individuals drinking alcohol at HaHa Sushi and Ramen on Olive Street. Agents discovered no one was 21 years old and every person was in possession of a fake identification card.

With the help of the San Luis Obispo Police Department, 29 underage individuals were cited and released for having a fake ID. Six of those individuals were also charged with being a minor in possession of an alcoholic beverage.

“Preventing the sale of alcoholic beverage to minors helps increase public safety by reducing DUI arrests and collisions,” according to police. “Statistics have shown that young people under the age of 21 have a much higher risk of being involved in a collision than older drivers.”

Your taxpayer funded tuition grants hard at work at the local DRUNK holes. When those rascially kids kill your family while drunk driving, thank a DemoNcrat before you, ahem, “resolve” the problem your way.

This was me 50 years ago. Got a Ca. DMV issued ID card (not at DL). I hope the statute of limitations has expired. Karen, please don’t give up my IP address. I’m too old to serve time.

There is hope for this generation after all.

This was probably the cool place where people under 21 were able to drink. I doubt 29 people under 21 randomly showed up for sushi. Then decided to have some beers.

Probably a social media spread that got to somebody who wasn’t invited. And turned them in. That or an employee.
