Aug.16.2024

A new e-cigarette pen called "Penjamin Cart Pens" has been found on school campuses in Santa Clarita Valley.

According to reports from the American media outlet Hometown Station, a type of e-cigarette pen known as "Penjamin Cart Pens" is not only functional as a regular pen but also can be used to smoke e-cigarettes. Robert Jensen, spokesperson for the Santa Clarita Valley Police Department, confirmed that at least two of these e-cigarette pens were found on a campus in the Santa Clarita Valley last week.

Officials of the William S. Hart Union High School District stated:

The Hartford district reminds students that all forms of e-cigarettes and controlled substances are prohibited on all campuses in the Hartford district. E-cigarette pens or any other paraphernalia will be confiscated and disciplinary action will be taken as necessary.

Both the Santa Clarita Valley Sheriff's Station and the Hart District did not disclose the specific campus where these e-cigarette pens were found.
