Following an undercover operation, 13 Hudson Valley businesses are accused of selling alcohol to minors. Twenty businesses passed the test.

Recently the New York State Liquor Authority targeted 500 locations across New York to see if any location would sell to minors.

The SLA sent underage decoys to 506 establishments with liquor licenses, including restaurants, bars, grocery stores, convenience stores and liquor stores.

"Underage drinking can lead to bad decisions and dangerous situations that can have lifelong consequences or needless tragedy," Gov. Cuomo said. "Through on-going enforcement efforts, we will continue to crack down on this dangerous behavior and target businesses that break the law by selling to minors and underage adults."
