NEW YORK — Deadly fires broke out in Philadelphia and New York City on Sunday taking the lives of six people in total.
The first blaze was in Philadelphia, on both floors of a two-story row house. It was reported at 2 a.m. Sunday, and crews were at the scene in two minutes, the fire department said.
There's no evidence of working smoke alarms, Philadelphia Fire Commissioner Adam Thiel said at a news conference. "I have personally in the past six years witnessed more than 100 people zipped in body bags in this city from fatal fires. And yes, I'm tired," he said."It's too much."
