A fireman fell thru the 2nd floor down to the 1st floor and is receiving medical attention......all of my neighbors are safe and unharmed thank GODDDD🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾
Thank God
It's down the block from me 1587 Lincoln bet Buffalo and Ralph.....the wind is blowing the smoke up the block towards Rochester, Utica etc....FDNY showed up real quick. Looks like it started on the ground floor....they are using power equipment to cut open the front face of the house and ladder is connected to the top floor window. I'm hoping everyone inside is safe and not hurt. 🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾
Praying for him
Feels like there’s been a lot of fires on this side of Brooklyn in the couple of months! Please be safe
