ACCIDENTAL FIRE BURNS DOWN MANHATTAN BUSINESS

From: New York attorney Gary E. Rosenberg (personal injury and accident attorney and lawyer; serving Brooklyn Queens Bronx; Brooklyn Injury Lawyer)

A worker installing a fire-safety door at a pizza place in Manhattan's Stuyvesant Town tarted an accidental fire that burned down five stores yesterday, May 12, 2010.

The building housing the five stores at 500 E. 14th St. was burned to the ground. New York City inspectors were checking the safety of the building's remains.

An employee of Ideal Fire Safety Systems said he was working on a fire-access door in the kitchen of Pete's-A-Place, a pizza joint, at around 10:15 a.m. when his welding torch apparently set some grease on fire.

Flames shot up through the building's roof, and smoke was visible from blocks away. It took 140 firefighters to extinguish the blaze. Two were treated for smoke inhalation.
