MIDDLETOWN, N.Y. -- A Middletown nursing home is evacuated after it's air conditioning stopped working.
City leaders say issues first started at the Highland Rehabilitation and Nursing Center on Friday night.
Repairs were supposed to be completed by Saturday morning.
Middletown Mayor Joseph DeStefano said the town was preparing a court-ordered evacuation of the facility, but owners allowed it's residents to be moved voluntarily.
Residents have been transferred across the region.
"The patients are going to about 11 different facilities, everywhere from within Middletown to Tarrytown, New York, we have about 92 people that were impacted, 10 had to be transported by ambulance, the majority of people are on air-conditioned buses to the other facilities," DeStefano said.
This is not the first time the nursing home has had this problem. In May, the home's air conditioning stopped working. Town officials will hold a hearing on that May incident this Thursday.
