FDNY: 3 fires break out at Montefiore Medical Center, NYC Health + Hospitals
First responders descended on Montefiore Medical Center and NYC Health + Hospitals North Central Bronx Campus after multiple fires broke out at the facilities.
Three separate fires affected the area -- one in the basement, one in an open-air parking garage, and another was a garbage fire.
No one was injured, and the hospital did not have to be evacuated.
Fire marshals are looking into if there is any sort of connection between the fires, but it is currently not considered suspicious.
FDNY officials says up to 75 firefighters were at the scene Friday to extinguish the flames within 45 minutes.
