On Monday morning, Amtrak suspended passenger train service between Albany and New York after flooding damaged tracks. "So that's basically what our priority is today, to try to get to them and open up these major arteries." About two dozen state roads were closed as life-threatening flooding spread across much of the state from the Massachusetts state line north to the Canadian border, Vermont State Police said.

An unattended 2-year-old starved after his father died at their upstate New York home earlier this year, authorities said Tuesday. The father died naturally from "cardiovascular disease," according to a statement from the Ontario County Sheriff's Department. The toddler's cause of death was starvation, and the manner was ruled to be accidental, the sheriff said. "It is believed that Mr. Conde passed away first, and the child was not able to obtain any nourishment after his father passed," the sheriff concluded. The pair were last seen alive Jan. 22, and investigators have said there were no signs of forced entry or foul play inside the apartment.
