At least 8 injured in New York City building fire
The New York Fire Department says at least eight people have been injured in a fire raging through a Bronx building.
Fire officials say they responded to the blaze at a four-story building near the Bronx Zoo in Van Nest at about 5:30 a.m. Tuesday.
WABC-TV reports there are twelve apartments in the building, but the fire appears to have started in a furniture store on the first floor. Most of the injuries appear to be not life-threatening.
The blaze comes only days after the deadliest residential fire to hit New York City in at least a quarter century swept through another Bronx apartment building, killing 12 people.
