SARATOGA SPRINGS ā An 8-year-old boy is dead and a 43-year-old woman was hospitalized in “extremely” critical condition after an incident in a residential area Friday morning.
Details about how the boy died and how the woman was injured were not immediately available, but police have converged on a townhome at 1244 Willowbrook Lane in Saratoga Springs.
The incident involved the mother and her three children and police said a 15-year-old boy and 17-year-old girl were also in the house, with the girl making the initial call to police after finding her mother and brother unconscious.
