FDNY: Tenants Delayed Calling Firefighters to Report Queens Fire

FDNY Commissioner Daniel Nigro said tenants heard the fire alarms go off but waited around 10 minutes before calling the fire department to report the massive apartment fire in Queens Tuesday that ended up injuring 21 people and displacing around 90 families. Making matters worse, he said, the door to the apartment where the fire started was left open allowing for the blaze to spread quickly.
