Firefighters saved two girls and a teenage boy from a Brooklyn blaze yesterday, officials said.

Teams from Ladder 102 stormed the burning Seigel St. home in East Williamsburg shortly before 7 p.m. after learning the children were trapped inside.

Firefighter Sal Diorio located the children and carried them to Firefighter Andrew Hassell, who removed the burglar bars from a window and pulled the victims out.

The 2-year-old girl, 4-year-old girl and 16-year-old boy were being treated at Kings County Hospital for nonlife-threatening injuries.

It was unclear last night what started the blaze, which roared for 30 minutes.
