Fire This Morning At Caton Avenue Apartment Building

A fire broke out at 1834 Caton Avenue (between Ocean Avenue and Saint Paul’s Place) shortly before noon, says the FDNY. Firefighters received a call at 11:11am and were on scene at the multiple dwelling building by 11:14, bringing the blaze under control at 11:47.

Thankfully, no injuries have been reported. Tweets from the FDNY suggest the fire was on the 2nd and/or 3rd floor of the building, although we only observed 2nd floor damage and the spokesman we talked to was unable to confirm if the fire had reached the 3rd floor. The cause of the fire has not yet been determined.
