State emergency management officials are confirming that New York State Police have caught the suspect who caused a Shelter in Place Order to be put into effect in the Oneida County Town of Westmoreland.
State officials, friends and family members of Lance Cpl. Jeremy Lasher were in Oneida today to officially designate Route 365A in honor of the fallen soldier.
Acting Mayor Alden Smith led a town hall meeting Tuesday night to update Oneida residents on Governor Andrew Cuomo's Mohawk Valley and 2013 Flood Recovery Program.
Although officials are grateful for the help that they are receiving from everyone in the Mohawk Valley, public safety authorities speaking for the City of Oneida are asking non-residents to steer clear of the area unless directly involved in the clean-up efforts.
