The police did not identify the man, pending notification of the family. But he was sent to Saratoga Hospital for an autopsy. However, after the checks that the investigators did, they did not find any indication of criminal activity. Hence, there does not seem to be any threat to the public. The police did not reveal the cause of death and said that there was no need to be scared. But it couldn’t have made the residents carefree at the moment. 

NYC is going through a tough time!

Another city in New York State recently went through a supposed chilling crime. On the other hand, Big Apple is dealing with its own issues. As known by many, hundreds of wildfires have been burning in Toronto Blue Jays’ country, Canada. As a result, the skies of New York City changed colors as they got smoke ridden. Moreover, NYC topped the list of the world’s most populated cities. It was because of the pollution caused by the wildfires.
