NEW YORK, NY- If there is any wonder why crime is out of control in cities like New York, look no further than an incident that occurred this week in the Ridgewood section of Queens last week. 

The New York Post reports that two men, owner Francisco Valerio, 53, and his brother Luis were working at the Franja Wines and Liquors store on May 20 at approximately 7:45 pm when two would-be thieves attempted to steal bottles of alcohol by slipping them into their jackets, police said.
