Fire Breaks Out In 14th Floor Of Trump Village Building

More than 60 firefighters swarmed the Shorecrest Towers in Trump Village Tuesday evening after a fire broke out in one of the apartments, according to the FDNY.

First responders were called to the apartment building, located at 3000 Ocean Parkway, just after 5pm, the Fire Department says. The fire erupted in an apartment on the 14th floor. There were no injuries reported and the flames were quickly under control.

The FDNY has still not determined the cause of the fire.

Residents at the apartment building have been surrounded by sirens and flashing lights before. Tenants had to be evacuated and the building was on lockdown for more than three hours last fall when an emotionally disturbed man barricaded himself in his 16th floor apartment and started throwing silverware out the window.
