FDNY officials responded to a call Saturday night of a 2-alarm fire that broke out across multiple residences at 2822 Brighton 8th Street just after 8:24 pm.

Residents tell News 12 they heard knocking on their doors from residents of the third and fourth floor, warning them that a fire had broken out overhead.
