A two-alarm fire on Seaview Avenue (Greenville area) displaced adults and children and killed 3 pitbulls last night (June 3, 2008). Fire Director Armando Roman said that the fire was reported late (around 11PM) and the firefighters “took about two hours to bring the blaze under control“, according to WNBC.

In other news across Hudson River, residents along the Brooklyn and Queens shorelines complained that they smelled something like a burning rubber or plastic. Long Island Fire Departments suspected that the source of the odor might be from this JC fire last night.
