Firefighters and a smell of smoke on East 10th Street




A reader noted the smell of smoke and a few fire trucks this morning on 10th Street between First Avenue and Second Avenue... anyone have more details? Not sure of the extent of what happened...

[Updated: The Local East Village has a report, including that "A small fire on East 10th Street this morning was sparked by an extension cord that melted after being wrapped around a radiator in a fifth floor apartment." There were no injuries. DNAinfo also has an item on the fore here.]

    the street ended up closed off and lined with around 7 fire trucks...additional fire trucks were stationed at either end of 10th--both on 1st and 2nd avenue...i heard the fire was put out around 9:35am.
