14 citywide. 14, conditions 14. Is there an officer, 84, on the assignment? I'm saying you said on which assignment? In the Borough of the Bronx, on Elkin Avenue, I believe it is. Oh, yes, we have conditions 55 en route. 10-4, is he 84? No, not yet. Can you put me on the assignment?

I just left from there right now at 8pm. I posted a video. It was NOT the large building next to it. It was the small gray color building next to it. The bottom half that looks like a garage, is actually a business. Been there for a long time. The fire started in that building. I spoke to the emergency personnel who are there right now. It was the building HVAC that caught fire. The fire burn down the business and burn down the mosque upstairs. Two people in the mosque were hurt. I don't know to what extent. It's so sad the people of that mosque worked so hard to build it.
