Abandoned house burns in suspicious fire

The Hogansburg Akwesasne Volunteer Fire Department was called to a structure fire early Saturday morning. A one story abandoned house located across from the Speedway Convenience Store on Route 37 was fully involved when units arrived at the scene. A fire hydrant was located right next to the fire that made it easy to put the fire out.

Units from HAVFD, SRMT Tribal Police, Bombay Fire Department, AMAU and National Grid responded to the fire. There was no power to the structure and it is considered suspicious. If anyone has any information please contact SRMT Tribal Police at (518) 358-9200 or New York State Police Troop B at (518) 483-5000.
