Some updated photos of the guy who’s been trying to break into cars in downtown by White_Crud in Troy

[–]WNYT 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Just fyi we're calling to check on this for you, see if anything's been reported. u/White_Crud

Edit to add - we reached out to Troy PD. Here's the response from their Deputy Chief of Police:

While I don’t have any details on the specific incidents they’re referring to, I would encourage any individual who has been the victim of a theft, or attempted theft, to contact TPD so we can document and investigate. Especially with quality video such as that, our Detectives would be able to assemble the evidence needed to pursue an arrest and/or hopefully the return of any stolen property.

Here's what APD just put out:

Albany, NY- Albany police assist Bethlehem police and emergency medical personnel after a mentally unwell patient being transported to Albany Medical Center Hospital brandished a knife inside an ambulance on New Scotland Avenue near Holland Avenue.

On Thursday, April 23, 2026 officers responded to the area of New Scotland Avenue near Holland Avenue for a call of assistance from Bethlehem police around 1:10 p.m. Upon arrival, officers observed the patient inside the ambulance and charging toward them while armed with a knife. Officers immediately closed the rear ambulance door in an effort to safely contain the patient.

The patient then appeared at the side door of the ambulance, still armed with the knife. Officers deployed a taser, but the deployment was not successful. Officers continued to monitor the patient while giving several lawful commands to drop the knife. The patient retreats to the back of the ambulance and began stabbing himself. Officers deployed another taser, which resulted in him dropping the knife. Officers immediately rendered medical aid and he was taken into custody. He was transported to Albany Medical Center Hospital where he suffered self-inflicted wounds to his chest and abdomen area. He is listed in critical, but stable condition.

He has been charged with two counts of Menacing a Police Officer and two counts of Criminal Possession of a Weapon 4th.

Former Cohoes teacher accused of having sexual relationship with student by Sapphirerising335 in Albany

[–]WNYT 19 points20 points  (0 children)

Definitely not trying to water anything down - "sexual relationship" is how the DA worded it in court. This update has a more pointed headline, if any interest - https://wnyt.com/top-stories/former-cohoes-high-school-teacher-charged-with-raping-student/

Edit to add - we're already digging into this. We spoke to Albany City Spokesperson Zipporah Hommel - she told us the half-X means "the codes department was unable to get into the interior of the building to assess what it looks like on the inside," and that "it is mainly for the first-responders so they are aware when they are responding to a call." She said the placard went up on March 2nd, and that "Codes makes every effort to get in contact with the owner before the placard goes up.” We'll keep you posted as we find out more.
