NYCHA heating emergency
Several thousand residents at the Patterson Houses in the Bronx have been suffering in ice-cold apartments for nearly a month. NYCHA finally got the heat back on. But with dilapidated boilers, residents wonder how long it will last. The Patterson Houses have 1,700 apartments among 25 buildings. Residents told Fox 5 they've been mostly without heat or hot water since before Christmas. That includes Danielle Jones and her baby son Kaiden, who just turned 3 months old. She just brought him home from four days in the hospital for pneumonia.
