The fire started in the mini market grocery (first floor of the 4 story building).
FD evacuated everyone including 1 family from the 4th floor with the help of a ladder.
Most of the families were sitting outside in their nightgowns, plus Mom’s were sitting holding crying babies in their hands.
Hatzolah transported 3 kids along with their parents (for company) to Brooklyn Hospital just to check them out if they swallowed-in some smoke.
Basicly everything is all right just a little bit of damage to the grocery etc.
Should me always know only from Bsiras Toives, Have me all a phenomenal day.
