Westchester County police have released photos of the four suspects in Saturday's "arson fire and vandalism spree" that occurred at the Tarrytown Lighthouse in Sleepy Hollow.
Terrance Raynor, with the Westchester County Department of Safety, has also confirmed they are currently processing fingerprints from the incident.
News 12 was able to gain access to the historic lighthouse Tuesday, with burnt debris, broken furniture and the smell of fire smoke in the air.
Officials have maintained that the initial estimate is still around $100,000, but said that could change.
"As the process continues, our investigators are looking to secure video footage that may be around this area such as the train station, some of the buildings might have some video," said Raynor.
Officials are still searching for those involved and are asking anyone with information to come forward and contact the Westchester County police.
The lighthouse has resided on the Hudson River East Shore since 1883 and is designated on the National Register of Historic Places.
At this time, all tours have been postponed until further notice.
