Employees of four Mamaroneck Village establishments were arrested on Tuesday night, July 17, for the unlawful sale of alcoholic beverages, a Class A misdemeanor.

According to Village of Mamaroneck Police Lt.

The arrested employees were taken to Mamaroneck Village police headquarters, where they were booked and issued court appearance tickets.
