The Ellis Island Immigration Museum, which sustained severe damage to its infrastructure from the surging waters of Superstorm Sandy, is not expected to re-open to the public this year, the National Park Service said.

The Oct. 29 storm bought water levels as high as 8 feet to Ellis Island, adjacent to the home of the Statue of Liberty, destroying boilers and electrical systems.

The museum “is under repair from storm damage and will not likely be open in 2013,” the park service said Friday, as it announced that security screening for visitors to the Statue of Liberty would be moving to temporary facilities on Ellis Island.

 Julio Acevedo was arrested Wednesday in connection to a Brooklyn hit-and-run crash that killed an entire family.

Cops confirm Acevedo, 44, was nabbed walking out of a Turkey Hill convenient store in Bethlehem, Pennsylvania, shortly after 5p.m.

Acevedo, who told The Daily News in an exclusive interview Tuesday that he would surrender to authorities, had been a fugitive for four days following the deadly Sunday crash, which claimed the lives of Nachman and Raizy Glauber. The crash also later killed the couple’s newborn child, who was delivered alive after Raizy was pronounced dead.

NEW YORK — Two young brothers swept from the arms of their mother by the violent sea at the height of Superstorm Sandy were found dead in a marsh Thursday, a tragic exclamation mark on an epic storm.

The boys, 2-year-old Brandon and 4-year-old Connor Moore, were sucked into the swirling floodwaters as their mother, Glenda Moore, tried to escape her SUV after it stalled Monday in the deluge on Staten Island, one of the areas hardest hit by the storm that has claimed 90 lives.
