New York State Police are investigating the handling of a call reporting that a car had gone off the Thruway in the Town of Portland Monday.
The call from a passing motorist came in at around 5 p.m., but Dr. Steven Abrusko and his children weren't found until around 8 p.m. after Ambrusko regained consciousness, found his cell phone and called for help.
His four-year-old son Peter and six-year-old daughter Katherine died in the crash.
State Police Captain Steven Nigrelli says the responding trooper went to the scene but said he found no sign of the car.
