NYC house fire leaves 11 injured, 1 in critical condition
NEW YORK – The Fire Department says a blaze that broke through the roof of a house in Queens critically injured one person and seriously injured 10 others, including seven firefighters.
More than 100 firefighters converged on the blaze early Friday. It was reported around 5 a.m. in the Elmhurst neighbourhood. WCBS-TV footage showed flames shooting through the roof at one point.
It happened hours after a fire in an apartment building elsewhere in Queens critically injured two people.
That fire was reported around midnight on the second floor of a building in Jackson Heights. It was under control in about a half-hour.
