- 5.8.19 | Video by Adam Balhetchet | HARLEM, Manhattan (DCPI) - On Wednesday, May 8, 2019, at approximately 0141 hours, police responded to a 911 call of a residential fire inside of 2441 Adam Clayton Powell Jr. Boulevard (Frederick Samuel Houses), apartment #5G, within the confines of the 32 Precinct (PSA #6). Upon extinguishment of the fire by FDNY personnel, responding officers observed 6 persons, unconscious and unresponsive, within the rear bedroom areas. EMS responded to the location and pronounced the 6 aided persons deceased at the scene; they are a 45-year-old female, a 33-year-old male, an 11-year-old female, an 8-year-old male, a 6-year-old female, and a 3-year-old male. The cause of the fire is to be determined by NYC Fire Marshall. There does not appear to be any signs of criminality at this time. The investigation remains ongoing.

Thank you for going the extra step to produce a thoughtful and compassionate video. Thank you too to all the emergency service personnel who not only dealt with extingishing the fire but were confronted with discovering the family which perished. From your video you can see all staff in attendance and how they dealt with other occupants of the building and their pets as they are helped to evacuate the building. The consideration and attention they are given by the emergency service personnel is so good that you can see the calmness, trust, and appreciation in people's faces. There is no praise high enough for the people who, on a daily basis, live their lives for the benefit of strangers. Xx
Fifi Mo thank you!
@@LoudlabsNYC Did they ever find out what started the fire :::: ???? God bless all involved !!!!
What a terrible sight for these firemen to be met with. Six deaths in one fire. RIP.
D M We saw things we wish we could unsee as well.
It never gets easy you either become numb or battle hardened when you see enough of the victims.
From across the country here in Oregon, I am saddened by your cities loss. May those lives lost rest in piece.
This is so sad rest in peace with the angels now sincere condolences to the family and friends gone but not forgotten watching the faces of the firefighters says it all hope they get the help they need they are true heroes we can watch and observe but they see the horrific tragedy God bless them all
This is so sad may the whole family rest in peace in Heaven with Jesus and Mary 😭.
This is one of your best work. I love the closeups of all the special Units And The Firefighters, EMTS And Paramedics working together
Juan Superduty Thanks Juan! We do our best!
Great video, I like the different “chapters” in the evolution.
The tragedy and lesson to be learned here is how a simple smoke and c/o detector could have and probably would have saved this family. May they now Rest In Peace.
To all firefighters, when doing overhaul Please wear your breathing apparatus, this is when the toxic gases are at there worst.
God bless these Fire Personnel having to deal with finding the lost family members give them big hug`s when you see them they also go through a lot.
The poor babies. Fire caused by unattended cooking. I don't even want to imagine the horrors they went through before their demise. Please have smoke detectors in your homes to avoid such tragedies.
You cannot comprehend the scale of this until you hear the fire officer gaving his press interview, and when you hear him, and see the faces on the members, it hits home even though you don't know them and on the other side of the world, its never good to hear of fatalities, and see the faces of those guys who are there to save lives, especially children.. RIP and Stay safe the members of the FDNY and the NYPD, and EMT's. God Bless you guys. RIP those who lost their lives
Truly a documentary, thanks Loudlabs !
Shoutout to LOUDLABS for accepting my video that was a truly tragic day to go through, I hope I can help in the near future let me know.
Prayers for all fire fighters
Absolutely shattered my heart when I heard "There were multiple kids in the apartment. We're down 3 so far and still looking." 💔😢
My heart goes out to the six ocupents. Well done to the emergency services for prompt response. What a tragedy.

Once again, the resulting tragedy of a fire in the loss of human life, in this instance, multiple lives of a whole family, extremely sad.

Im sorry you lost a friend and her family. You are in my thoughts as well as the rest of their friends , family members, neighbors, and firefighters on scene .
@@lisadomagala1061 thank u the memorial is on Monday I don't know how I'm gonna handle seeing her nsix kids I'm already heart broken my son hasn't talked since the incident
Bless all the superheroes stay safe firefighters 🚒 🙏 ❤
Just heartbreaking.
One apartment was burning and windows breaking
This is for all those who are anti - Government: it's in moments like this one when you can call yourself happy that the Government is there when you most desperataly need it! Btw.: Due to a report in a German newspaper (yes, this incident made in across the Lake), the fire started in a kitchen somewhere on the 4th floor.
R.I.P
Why the cursing. This fire is out of control.
God bless the family! This the reason why firefighters die of cancer! FDNY is pathetic about the use of SCBA!
So sad!!
Is there any laws in NY that make it mandatory for smoke detectors in all houses and apartments? It is where i lIve in Canada.
Here two in the u.k.
Miles High i do believe all apartments and homes are required to have smoke and CO detectors as well as fire extinguishers
@@LoudlabsNYC Thanks! I thought it might be the same. Could be many things that happened to cause this. Where the detectors working? If not everyone was in bed,and the fire was aggressive, smoke inhalation.....while they where sleeping....tragic all the way. Nice filming too btw.
Many times the detectors are disconnected because of occupants smoking etc.
One life lost is one too many
Oh, my heart is breaking.
So sad..😢
It's sad cause u can hear Dem screaming
This was horrible. R.I.P
Between the timestamp of 3:16 - 3:24 Was that someone moving around in the fire? I Thought that I seen someone's head Moving
Sorry to be negative here, although it was a dramatic fire, I think the scenes of the residents in distress may have known the victims, should not have been included, as I say sorry to be negative. Thinking that these guys have ajob to do, saving lives, nobody can comprehend what they are going through. RIP and great job FDNY
Hello guys, I have a question. Is firefighters communication on radios really so loud? Or is it “recorded” by any other device? how is it so easy to hear it... sorry for dumb question but I was just curious... and rip to all the victims
I believe the camera man has a radio on him which is why it seems so loud. It's also loud when the apparatus are using their external speakers so the operator can hear whats going on. Not sure if FDNY has those on their apparatus or not but it will amplify the radio traffic.
Ben Cunningham That’s correct. You are heading Adams radio playing the speaker is clipped to his collar right next to the camcorder.
Ben Cunningham thank you very much
Poor poor babies may they be resting in peace now.
Why are these usa houses more like prisons no one can get in but thinking of future safety of people they need to be able to get out . Come on somebody needs to look at the measures re safety and come up with a better plan plz
10-45 Code 1. Six times. Heart breaking. Happened near my Brother in Laws.
dancingkitty11 your MOS?
I volunteered as an EMT for many years in the late 90s. Many guys who volunteer on Long Island are also FDNY. Firefighters both day and night, those guys are.
dancingkitty11 wow awesome!
@@LoudlabsNYC you learn lot with them
R.I.P .
Clear the sidewalks and give the Firefighters room to work.
R.I.P to the victims 🌹
All that money wasted on pansy ball players. they need to get real jobs as fire fighters than they would be the true HEROS
I've been saying this for years as well.
I'm 100% in agreement with you.
When it comes to the big 3
leagues here in the USA.
I totally could care less if they never played another game ever again.
Fireman and 1st responders are the true heroes.
sounds like they committed suicide how can six people not know of a fire in their apartment
smoke will get you first before the fire does
Absolutely true x
at 32:00 faces says everything
WHY GIVE IT FIRE 🔥?!
why do firefighters bust window frames out after the glass is already broke out
csx railfan good question for any firefighters here
@@BrooklynsBiggz You are an idiot. Why are you so angry against firemen, who risked their lives to try and save these six lost souls? Unbelievable. SMH ...by the way, TheBrokenWing8 has (most of) the right answer.
Biggz Davis looks like someone doesn’t understand how house fires work.
Fire can get in the walls, they have to make sure it didn't or sometimes they have to chase it in the walls.
Why do the NYFD, let shit burn...Water should be applied first...no brainer.
Water is used first to fight internally the after that outside hoses.
A horn sound at 0:40
I hope you don't film those effected it's not the done thing thankyou
I would like to know why its OK for a black person to call another black person the n word? Why is this video not being flagged for hate speech?
Ohhh god shut up
God knows 🙏 wrong timing though but it's relevant question.
I wanna know what the atf was doin there
I hope these tenants have content's insurance.
Perhaps I am a babe in the hood, but I am amazed this video got past yahoo censors for use of the n-word.
Rest In Peace
I find it very stupid to be asking for a cause and information on how it started when they just put it out. Give them time to deal with the victims and then they will release that info. Fire Fighters take it hard when they try there best to get in and save people only to be beaten by the Red Devil. I just feel when press conference's are give on location and just after the fire is under control and there are victims use you head with question's not one concern for the well being of the Fire fighters who found the Victim's.
Never live da top floor
Do you really have to use the N word ????? an where is the water hoses>
🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾 👼
