A manhunt is underway in Orange County for a man wanted in connection with a house fire and homicide Thursday night.
Thomas David Ryan is believed to be armed and dangerous. Police say the 32-year-old is 6-foot-2 and roughly 200 pounds.
He was last seen in the area of the Greenville Turnpike wearing black sweatpants and a black T-shirt. He is believed to be driving a gray Toyota Prius with New York plates, HNH-7671.
New York State Police said the fire at a house near the turnpike was deliberately set. One person was found dead inside the home. The death is being investigated as a homicide.
Police said Ryan is known to frequent the Plattsburgh area in Clinton County. Anyone who comes into contact with Ryan is asked to dial 911 immediately.
