State police are investigating this morning after a pickup truck pulling a tractor-trailer rolled over on the Cross-Westchester Expressway and William L. Butcher Bridge in West Harrison.

The owner of a local animal rescue was arrested. Lisa Marie Birdsall allegedly spent $17,000 in donations and adoption fees on personal expenses. She is the owner of Recycled Paws Rescue in Lake Mohegan, a shelter News 12 reported on last week for allegedly fostering out sick puppies.
A Middletown teenager was arrested in connection with a shooting upstate. Officers say 18-year-old Robert Bentley fired into a home on New Street in Stottville last week. A 16-year-old is also facing charges. No one was hurt.
