(Click HERE for photos) Early Sunday morning, a fire broke out at 346 Marcy Avenue near Heyward Street in the basement of a 3 story private residence. Although Hatzolah and FDNY received reports of people possibly trapped inside, Boruch Hashem there was no one injured.
Apparently, a SMOKE DETECTOR had saved their lives.
As YWN had mentioned the FDNY annual campaign: “Change your clocks, change your battery”. Statistics show, that a working smoke alarm will increase your chances of surviving a fire by fifty percent!

IF YOU DON’T HAVE A SMOKE DETECTOR PLEASE GET ONE!
I finally got mine up the other day after putting it off for way too long.
