Firefighters at the scene on Heritage Drive
NEW CITY – Three apartments at Heritage Drive in New City were
left uninhabitable as the result of a Sunday afternoon fire.
When first responders arrived on the scene at 12:43 p.m., 17 Heritage
Drive was fully engulfed in flames.
No one was injured in the fire.
The New City Fire Department, with aid from seven other area departments,
extinguished the blaze, but not before three units were heavily damaged.

to the state of the structure.

but police said at this point, there is no reason to suspect the fire
was suspicious.
