Multiple Fires Erupt at Mount Sinai Hospital in East Harlem, Causing Injuries and Patient Relocation

A two-alarm fire broke out in a sub-cellar generator room at Mount Sinai Hospital on the Upper East Side in Manhattan. Most patients were instructed to stay in their rooms while firefighters extinguished the blaze. Twenty patients were temporarily relocated to unaffected areas of the hospital. The fire, believed to be electrical in nature, was quickly brought under control, and no injuries were reported. Madison Avenue was temporarily closed for FDNY activity but has since reopened.
