Firefighters responded to reports of an explosion just before 12:30 p.m. in the Norwood neighborhood.

Authorities described the injuries as minor.

A Queens man was taken into custody shortly after the incidents, and police said his identity would be released once he is charged.

An emergency response to structural damage discovered in a Midtown tower included the evacuation of 148 guests at the Hampton Inn Grand Central.

Some residents had been allowed to return home.

The FDNY said the firefighter is in serious but stable condition with injuries that aren’t life-threatening.

Two firefighters were injured while fighting the blaze.

The fire tore through the upper floors of the Boston Secor NYCHA high-rise on Bivona Road.

The changes come as Mayor-elect Mamdani vows to put his own imprint on the program.

Patrick D. Brady joined the FDNY in 2014 and came from a family of firefighters.
