LOCKPORT, N.Y. -- Lockport officials are checking on residents cleaning up after Wednesday's massive industrial fire.
That's as the Erie County Medical Examiner is working to determine the identity of a body discovered in the rubble Friday night.
There's no word yet if the body is that of missing 14-year-old Joseph Phillips. His family says they haven't seen Phillips since shortly before the fire started on Wednesday night.
Meanwhile, it's been four days since flames destroyed the High Tread tire plant and investigators are still trying to figure out a cause.
Crews were still sifting through rubble Saturday.
And hundreds of residents in the surrounding neighborhoods have returned home since being evacuated that night.
"I was actually napping when it first started," Lockport resident Tim Koury said. "So, I head the sirens, looked out the window, saw a big fire, gathered a bunch of stuff up, got out of my house, and kinda watched from afar."
"Everything worked wonders and the people themselves leaving no hard times," Lockport 3rd Ward Alderman Mark Devine said. "Nobody wants to leave their house, but they knew that they had to and everybody cooperated. I guess that's the one word that I would say, cooperation."
The DEC is cleaning the oily film that made its way into the Erie Canal when crews were putting out the flames. They're also monitoring the air quality in the immediate area.
