An electrical fire in a transformer that serves the Tiffany & Co. store on New York's Fifth Avenue spewed thick grey smoke from under the iconic building on Thursday and caused two minor injuries, officials said.
The fire did not spread to the store itself, but firefighters evacuated about 100 people from the building as a precaution, Deputy Fire Chief Joseph Carlsen said. Two people suffered minor injuries during the evacuation, Carlsen said.
Carlsen said the fire was in an underground transformer vault that provides power to the Tiffany building.
