PATERSON — A landlord who owns multiple apartment buildings recently paid the city what local officials are calling a record-breaking fine of $211,000 for fire safety violations.

PATERSON — The woman knocking at the Paterson fire headquarters window was frantic. In her arms was her four-month-old daughter, who was choking. Her skin was turning blue from the lack of oxygen.

The fire was reported about 2:35 a.m. in a single-family home at 71 North 7th St., according to the Paterson Fire Department.

Trapped as the floodwaters continued to rise, Ortega waited for the Paterson Fire Department’s water rescue team to come and get her. “I literally swam to the boat,” she said.
