Fire injures 38 as Empire State Building blaze erupts
A Monday evening fire halfway up the Empire State Building injured 38 people, mostly from smoke inhalation, with about 150 firefighters battling for hours. The blaze, largely confined to four unoccupied offices on the List floor, prompted a full evacuation of tourists and staff. Two witnesses described heavy smoke and a broken alarm system while officials noted a rapid “brick oven” heat effect on the fire floor.
