A massive five-alarm fire erupted at 1385 Bushwick Avenue in Brooklyn, involving multiple structures including a supermarket grocery store. The FDNY is actively battling the blaze, which has caused significant smoke and traffic disruptions in the area. Six people were injured, and residents nearby have been advised to avoid smoke and close windows. Additionally, a major incident occurred on I-95 in Norwalk, Connecticut, where a petroleum tanker truck carrying 8500 gallons of fuel crashed and exploded, leading to the closure of the highway in both directions until at least Monday. The fire caused extensive damage to an overpass, necessitating its demolition and a prolonged closure of this critical traffic artery. Emergency crews and firefighters are on the scene, and there have been no reports of serious injuries. FDNY Fire Marshals will investigate the cause of the fire, and the Norwalk School District is closing schools on Friday.
