#BREAKING: Police say the first six - out of what are expected to be hundreds of arrests - are being brought to court now facing charges for being ‘key players’ in the large party that took place at former NFL player Brian Holloway's Stephentown home. The Rensselaer County Sheriff's Office says they expect to arrest between 100 and 200 young people in connection to the party - a record for one case in the county.

Anya Tucker - WTEN is at court where the arrests are taking place & will have more on NEWS10 ABC tonight.

Stock up on Forever Stamps

The U.S. Postal Service has requested to raise the price of stamps by three cents - that would make the price of a first-class stamp 49 cents.

Many consumers won't feel the increase immediately. Forever stamps bought before an increase still would cover first-class postage. The price of new forever stamps would be at the higher rate, if approved.
