Reader report: Smell of smoke, and, maybe, a missing snake on East Fifth Street

A reader sent along these photos these evening... noting that the FDNY responded to a call at 225 E. Fifth St. ...


... a firefighter said that a resident had smelled smoke...


... meanwhile, during all this, the man outside was yelling, looking for his snake.




...it was ultimately a false alarm... the only damage were the two broken front doors at No. 225 ... Don't know about the snake.

    I told you guys about my parents snake story from Brooklyn Heights in the 70s right? Short story, they found a 6ft albino python in their bathtub, get a scotch or two in my Dad, and he can add the artistic flourishes.
