4-alarm fire in the Bronx burns through home with dozens of firefighters responding

Firefighters are battling a four-alarm blaze at a home in the Fordham section of the Bronx Thursday morning.

The FDNY received a call just after 8 a.m. about flames in the basement of a two-story home on Briggs Avenue. It quickly escalated, with more than 200 fire and EMS personnel responding to the scene. 

Video from the scene shows thick, black smoke in the area. 

There have been no injuries reported. There is no word on what caused the blaze. 

The fire comes as the air quality in New York is already poor due to smoke from wildfires in Canada. Skies have been hazy since Wednesday.
