Police: Local Employees Accused of Selling Alcohol to Minors

Employees of two local markets were arrested on Monday after allegedly selling alcohol to an underage—and undercover—volunteer, state police say.

State police conducted an underage drinking enforcement detail, during which the volunteer tried to buy alcoholic beverages from over 20 local businesses in the towns of Somers, North Salem, Lewisboro and Pound Ridge.

According to state police, two employees of those local establishments sold alcohol to the underage volunteer, resulting in arrests under the alcoholic beverage control laws, which prohibit the sale of alcohol to minors.

Olga Ajucum, age 36, of Katonah, was arrested while working at the Fifth Division Deli, in Cross River, and a 16-year-old female, of Vista, was arrested during her shift at the Scott's Corner Market in Pound Ridge.

Both were charged under the ABC laws with prohibited sale of an alcoholic beverage to a minor, a misdemeanor charge.  Ajucum is due in town of Lewisboro court on Aug. 30 at 8:30 p.m. and the 16-year-old is due in town of Pound Ridge court on Aug. 30 at 9 a.m.
