Two people were treated for minor burns last night during a fire on the fifth floor at 325 E. 12th St. between First Avenue and Second Avenue, according to the Citizen app

The fire was reported at 9 p.m., as passersby reported a significant FDNY presence.

Just before midnight, a Citizen user posted that residents were back inside the building.
