Dozens reporting phone outages

Verizon is investigating a widespread loss of telephone service in the New City area. Heather Wilner, spokeswoman for Verizon, said about 60 customers had called to report outages since late this afternoon. Though no cause has been determined, Wilner said that water from melting snow and ice may have gotten into an underground cable.


She could not say when service would be restored but Donald Tirschwell, who lost service at his New City law office, said Verizon officials told him it could take until Saturday.


Customers can report outages by calling 845-890-6611.
