New body cam footage shows the dramatic moments New York State Troopers ran into a burning building on Madison Avenue just after Albany’s July 4th fireworks show.
Around 10 p.m., Troopers working the near the Empire State Plaza were called to a disturbance a few blocks up Madison Avenue. Moments later, reports of a fire and a shooting came over the radio.
