State Police in Cortlandt recently conducted an "Underage Drinking Enforcement Detail" that involved an undercover 19-year-old attempting to purchase alcohol from area businesses, according to a report from state police. Cortlandt Manor's AJ's Bar and Grill, Croton's Tanampa Resataurant, Montrose Deli and Richy's Pub and Grub in Putnam Valley all sold alcohol to the minor without the minor being asked to show identification, state police said.
