FDNY commissioner says e-bike shop was issued violations before this morning's deadly fire: 'It is very, very important we get the word out how incredibly dangerous this is.' Watch live now:
"It is very, very important we get the word out how incredibly dangerous this is," she said."This exact scenario where there is an e-bike store on the first floor and residences above and the volume of fire created by these lithium-ion batteries is incredibly deadly.""There's a process in place, so that was issued in August and we would re-inspect that location.
After the court hearing, then it gets referred back to us, and then we will come out and re-inspect," FDNY Chief Fire Marshal Dan Flynn told reporters, adding they received a $1,600 fine."We did do some surveillance recently at the location. We saw that they were not charging the batteries at the time. But they do have many, many batteries, which is also a violation of fire code."
