STEPHENTOWN -- It's the party gone viral, that has left a community outraged. Hundreds of teens broke into former NFL player Brian Hollaway's Stephentown home, leaving behind thousands of dollars in damages, and a line of evidence on social media. And it's that exposure that has parents of the teens threatening to sue Holloway for outing their kids. "I don't see how that makes sense to sue someone when you destroyed their property," Holloway's son Brian

tells us.

"He had a harness rope with him. It appears it was human error as far as attaching it to the anchor point on top of the cliff," said Captain John Layton, from the Albany County Sheriff's Department.

Layton said Czajkowski, who had very little experience climbing, came to the park just around sunrise. He said it appears the victim did not have the proper knot on the rope as he was trying to rappel off the cliff.

"He's only been climbing a few times. It's a new thing for him. It's only been over the last few weeks," Layton said.

U.S. consulate in Afghanistan attacked

BREAKING NEWS: 

U.S. consulate in Afghanistan attacked

Updated: Friday, September 13 2013, 04:44 AM EDT  

KABUL, Afghanistan (AP) -- The State Department says all U.S. personnel are safe after Taliban militants attacked a U.S. consulate in western Afghanistan Friday morning.   The attackers used a car bomb and guns to battle security forces just outside the compound in the city of Herat. It was not entirely clear whether any attackers managed to breach the facility, but at least two Afghans were killed along with five alleged militants.   The Taliban has claimed responsibility for the attack.   Insurgent strikes have shifted in recent months. Once concentrated in the country's south and east, they now frequently occur in the north and west, which had been the more peaceful areas in years past.   Herat, the site of Friday's attack, lies near Afghanistan's border with Iran and is considered one of the better developed cities in the country, with a strong Iranian influence.
