Fatal Brooklyn house fire raises questions over safety complaints, lithium batteries

Six people have died following a fast-moving, two-story house fire on 58th Street in Sunset Park, Brooklyn. NYC Department of Buildings records show prior complaints against the home for unpermitted construction and an illegal basement apartment. Fire investigators also pulled an e-bike and e-scooter from the rubble; while lithium-ion batteries were present, officials note the official cause remains under investigation. FOX 5 NY's Jessica Formoso has the latest.
