Manhole fire in Brooklyn Heights spreads to SUV & nearby apartment building
A Thanksgiving Day electrical fire in a Brooklyn manhole gobbled up an SUV before spreading into a nearby apartment building — and nearly derailed one family’s holiday meal, FDNY officials said.
An SUV parked over the manhole by Hicks Street was consumed by the blaze as more than 100 firefighters and EMS personnel arrived to quench the fire, officials said. “There’s extensive fire down to that apartment, they will not be able to reoccupy that apartment this evening,” Corcoran said Thursday.Siblings claim late dad is mysterious plane hijacker DB Cooper after finding hidden parachute in home
