A man is suspected of lighting a fire early Tuesday that left nine people in a Brooklyn apartment building injured.
"We had six dogs, a baby, my godson and his baby moms, which I had to run upstairs and try to save. I made sure everyone got out the best way they could," a resident told abc 7.
While the cause of the blaze is under investigation, a witness said a disturbed man on the first floor lit the fire.
"The second floor neighbor, thankfully, knocked our window. They were like 'oh there's a fire.' I pretty much told everyone inside my apartment to lets go because we live right across from the guy who set it on fire," the witness said.
