Several FDNY firefighters injured battling multi-alarm fire


On Monday, January 17, 2011 FDNY was dispatched to a reported structure fire at JSJ Ironworks, a one-story commercial structure located at 150th Street/95th Avenue in Jamaica, Queens section of New York. There were reportedly hazardous materials in the building which contributed to the rapid spread of the fire. The fire quickly escalated to seven or eight alarms bringing 200 firefighters to the scene. The intense fire raged for 10 hours before it was declared under control. There was a structural collapse, which injured the firefighters. Following the collapse, operations were defensive only, as the structure was too unsafe for interior attack.
