Eighteen other businesses passed.
Along with the three businesses cited, troopers charged three people with unlawfully dealing with a child, a misdemeanor.
Troopers identified the three businesses cited as:
- Mikey Mart Valero, 6030 Duanesburg Road, Duanesburg
- Market 32, 442 Balltown Road, Niskayuna
- Annand Discount Wine & Liquor, 1437 Broadway, Schenectady
Troopers did not identify in a release the three individuals cited.
