ascertained that the juvenile was under the age of eighteen (18) years at the
time of committing the alleged offense, except where such juvenile has left
the state, or where said charge is that such juvenile is a juvenile traffic,
beer, wine or other alcohol or tobacco violator, or is within the purview of
