Fire officials said the blaze at the attached dwelling at 22-47 128 St. was reported around 8:45 p.m. Thursday night.

The blaze intensified over the next hour before firefighters finally got it under control. They were mostly controlling smoldering pockets in the home by 11 p.m.

The cause of the fire was not clear Thursday night.

Fire officials said they did not have information about where the two civilians were treated for their injuries. It was not clear how many firefighters were injured, although officials said their injuries were minor, and they may not even require medical treatment.
