Fire erupts inside Rogers Avenue apartment house

Firefighters and paramedics spread out across Rogers Avenue near Avenue D Tueday morning after a fire threatened to eat its way through two floors of a Flatbush apartment building.

FDNY officials said that the fire was sparked on the first floor of the building at 9:50 a.m.

The fire was put out about 40 minutes later, they said, but not after over 100 firefighters and 25 units came out to douse the blaze.

No injuries were reported, officials said. The cause of the fire was still under investigation as this paper went to press.
