POLICE seized more than 100 cans of beer from youths in Great Sankey and Penketh last weekend.
They also recovered 39 litres of cider, 34 bottles of beer, and bottles of vodka and wine.
And the patrol also recovered a hammer and a knife.
Sergeant Chris Unsworth, from Warrington West Community Action team, said: "We're working very closely with local off licences to prevent sales of booze to under age youths, but people are still being persuaded by teenagers to buy it on their behalf.
"This is an offence and you could face a fine of up to £1,000. But parents also need to play a role.
"With the World Cup under way, the likelihood is that people will have more alcohol at home than usual. Make sure your child is not one of those we have to escort back to their home."
