Hatzolah Vehicle Fire Outside Garage on 53rd Street

By Y.M. Lowy

Early this morning, a Hatzolah car went up in flames right outside the garage on 16th Avenue and 53rd Street.

The fire spread fast, and by the time the FDNY got there, the car was already burning strong. They managed to put it out, but the car was left in ruins.

Baruch Hashem, no one was inside or hurt. Thick smoke poured into the street, drawing the attention of passersby. Firefighters worked quickly to keep the flames from spreading.

The cause of the fire is unknown as the security footage doesn’t hint to arson.
