FDNY crews battled a three-alarm fire Sunday afternoon at businesses in Borough Park.
According to the FDNY, 46 Units and 141 Fire and EMS personnel responded to the scene at 5311 Fort Hamilton Parkway.
Fire officials say the flames broke out at a business that was next to a e-bike store but determined the fire did not start from the e-bike businesses.
They say the stock of the clothing store ignited into a blaze and spread through the building roof.
Fire officials on scene say no civilians were injured.
A fire fighter was treated for smoke inhalation. Fire officials called it a win for the department that the fire was able to be contained to the original structure by the over 200 responding fire personnel.
The response shut down multiple streets and caused major traffic on Fort Hamilton Parkway. Cars were still being redirected from the scene which remains closed as of Sunday evening.
A cause of the blaze was not immediately known.
