Multiple children were rescued from a house fire in Boro Park on Monday afternoon.
Hatzolah and the FDNY received numerous calls reporting a house fire at 928 51st Street, just off of 9th Ave at around 6:30PM.
Arriving emergency personnel found a group of six children trapped on the back porch, and fast-acting Hatzolah volunteers (Units B-270 and B-59) immediately grabbed a ladder and began taking the children down – before the FDNY arrived.
The fire was on the first floor of a 3 story private home.
The cause of the fire was unknown.

Oy! Were there no parents at home? Baruch hashem they were all saved but the story doesn’t tell where they were: it’s hard to imagine they escaped and left the children behind. If there was no parent, oy,! I smell the authorities stepping in with all kinds of abuse charges.
