EAST GREENBUSH, N.Y. -- Four teenagers have been arrested and charged in connection to last week's fire that destroyed a historic landmark in East Greenbush.

The fire broke out last week at the former Kospa Family Farm on Start Avenue. This video was obtained by police as evidence.

Police say a 16-year-old and three 15-year-olds set the building on fire as a prank. The 16-year-old faces criminal charges including arson, reckless endangerment, and criminal mischief. As for the three 15-year-olds, they'll head to family court on other charges.

The farmhouse has been vacant for years, and no injuries were reported.
