Flames could be seen shooting out the windows of the three-story building in Crown Heights, Brooklyn.
It is unclear what sparked the blaze on Bergen St but the New York Fire Department (FDNY) has said three of their crew have received non-life threatening injuries.
The FDNY tweeted: “FDNY members are operating on the scene of a 3-alarm fire at 910 Bergen St, Brooklyn.”
