A fire broke out at Yeshiva Torah Vodaath in Flatbush on Sunday afternoon. The Yeshiva is located at 452 East 9th Street between Ditmas Avenue and Cortelyou Road
The FDNY says they transmitted a One Alarm assignment for a fire on the 1st floor of a 6 story Yeshiva and dormitory at 2:30PM.
There were no reports of injuries, and the fire was brought under control a short while later.

@147 Unlikely. That’s a kindergarten or nursery classroom

Someone shooting his mouth off with giving any effort to know what he is talking about. It was an electrical fire started in a storage area. Nobody lights menorahs there
*sigh*
nobody lights there…
147. Was posted before 4pm. Don’t think it was chanukah candles!
@147
It’s still daylight
This is KENSINGTON not Flatbush. Flatbush people call this Boro Park and Boro Parkers call it Kensington.
If its Caton Foster and Coney Island Ave McDonald Ave Its KENSINGTON.
Thank your listening to this PSA.
one of the goyim in the yeshivah had a blowtorch, no idea why. people who were there at the scene told me this.
it had nothing to do with an electrical fire in a storage area, and it definitely had nothing to do with the menorah
chasdei Hashem it was Chanukah vacation today and there was no-one in the building
@147: get your facts straight before posting things
Any updates?
That’s not in Flatbush
All these fires in the last couple of weeks are a sign.
