More than 30 people have been displaced after a 4-alarm fire ripped through several homes in Brooklyn.
Firefighters were called to 85 Hemlock St. around 2:30 p.m., Saturday afternoon in the Cypress Hills section of the borough.
The fire started on the first floor of the home but quickly spread to three other homes.
Assistant Fire Chief James Daly told 1010 WINS firefighters observed heavy fire and smoke when they got to the scene.
The fire spread from the area above the ceiling of the building’s top floor to two adjoining buildings on its left, Daly said. Four homes were damaged in the fire.
Daly said five firefighters sustained minor injuries, but no civilians were injured.
“So a job well done,” Daly said.
