Ten FDNY units responded Friday night to a fire at a private home in Great Kills.
The incident was reported at around 8 p.m. inside a two-story residence at 4185 Hylan Blvd.
The official cause of the all-hands, one-alarm fire is currently under investigation, but it is believed to have originated on the first floor, Battalion Chief Kenneth Danielsen told the Advance/SILive.com.
“We had the fire out in about five minutes, but when we first arrived here there were flames blowing out of both front windows,” Danielsen said. “It then started coming out the front door.”
FDNY/EMS transported one individual in unknown condition to Staten Island University Hospital in Ocean Breeze, while a second individual was treated at the scene by EMS with non-serious injuries, Danielsen said.
