Firefighters quickly snubbed out a bedroom fire in a private house at 937 Blake Ave. in East New York on Tuesday morning.
Units arrived on the scene to find fire venting out of a second floor window just after 11:45 a.m. Some 65 firefighters used one hose-line to knock down the main body of fire.

Searches throughout the two-story brick home proved negative, with no civilians trapped and no injuries reported. The fire was placed under control at 12:20 p.m., and firefighters tossed charred debris — including a burned mattress — onto the lawn as they ensured every bit of fire had been extinguished.
The FDNY’s fire marshals will investigate and determine the cause of the fire.
