One person was killed and 14 others were injured, including six firefighters, after a massive explosion triggered a five-alarm fire at an apartment building in the Norwood section of the Bronx on Wednesday afternoon. More than 300 FDNY and EMS personnel responded to 374 East 209th Street, where intense flames rapidly engulfed three floors following the blast. Firefighters executed multiple emergency rescues as heavy smoke poured from blown-out windows, but crew members were forced to temporarily withdraw after a section of the third floor collapsed into the second story. Two civilians suffered life-threatening injuries, and three firefighters were treated for serious trauma, while FDNY fire marshals launched an investigation into the cause of the fatal explosion. #bronx #fdny #newyorkcity #bronxexplosion #breakingnews #worldnews #topnews #usnews #fire #nyc #norwood #ctvnews In this Times Now World News report, we break down the this topic: Stay connected with Times Now World for
