One minor injury was reported after flames broke out inside a home in Bath Beach. 
Initial reports said that someone was trapped inside as firefighters rushed to 83rd Street at around 9 a.m. Thursday. Fortunately, that wasn't the case. 
The fire was contained mostly to the first and second floors of the three-story home. Neighbors say that heavy smoke spread into several nearby houses, forcing many residents to temporarily evacuate.
