New information has been released about a massive fire earlier this month that destroyed an apartment building in Halfmoon.

According to reports, a cigarette butt is being looked at as the possible cause of the July 4th blaze at the Mohawk Terrace complex. However, investigators say they likely won't be able to definitively find out what sparked the fire because they couldn't recover the bucket residents used to put out their cigarette butts safely. More than 20 people were displaced by the fire but no one living there was hurt.
