Tracy Morgan Fish Tank Fire
Tracy Morgan’s New York City apartment caught fire on Wednesday.
The first call to the New York City Fire Department came at 8:34 AM and flames were under control by 9:03 AM.
The blaze occurred after the 30 Rock comedian’s fish tank ignited in flames due to a blown out lightbulb. The fire then spread to neighboring apartments in The Trump Place building in midtown Manhattan.
Tracy was not home during the fire, but escaped without injury.
“A fire broke out in my Manhattan apartment this morning, apparently starting with a lamp attached to my fish tank.”
“The sprinklers promptly activated and the NYFD came by to make sure it was contained. Fortunately, the fire did not spread and no one in the building was injured—even the fish are OK. My thanks to the New York Fire Department for their quick action.”
