Wal-Mart spokeswoman Jennifer Spall says all Wal-Mart employees at its Kodiak store will also be retrained after the illegal sale.
Spall says the Kodiak incident was a result of human error on the part of a Wal-Mart cashier, who keyed in the wrong information about a customer, who was underage.
Spall says employees will be retrained in the proper procedure for tobacco sales.
She also says the stores plan to implement a statewide policy of checking the identifications of all people attempting to purchase tobacco products.
