The Bronx apartment fire that has killed 19 people also left more than five dozen injured, with 13 still in critical condition in the hospital, said a senior adviser to New York City Mayor Eric Adams.
NEW YORK — At least 19 people, including nine children, died in a fire Sunday at a Bronx apartment building in one of the worst blazes in New York City in decades, officials said.“This is going to be one of the worst fires that we have witnessed during modern times,” he said.
More than five dozen people were injured and 13 people were still in critical condition in the hospital, Ringel said. The majority of victims were suffering from severe smoke inhalation, FDNY Commissioner Daniel Nigro said at a press conference earlier that afternoon.Firefighters “found victims on every floor and were taking them out in cardiac and respiratory arrest,” he said at an afternoon briefing. “That is unprecedented in our city. We expect there to be numerous fatalities.
