A fire that started in a deli in New York City early Wednesday spread to several other stores and sent flames shooting into the sky.
The fire started in a deli in the Kingsbridge section of the Bronx at about 3:30 a.m., New York Fire Department Assistant Chief Thomas Currao said in a briefing at the scene.
Some 200 firefighters and emergency medical workers responded, he said.
