A small fire broke out on the roof of Trump Tower on Monday morning, officials said.
Smoke was seen billowing off the top of the Manhattan skyscraper, carrying for several blocks.
Firefighters were called to the Fifth Ave. skyscraper, located at East 56thSt., at about 7:20 Monday morning.
The blaze appeared to break out in the building’s heating and cooling system, the FDNY said.
They quickly knocked the fire back, but firefighters are currently making sure it didn’t spread.
Fire crews are responding to a fire at Trump Tower. There have been no injuries or evacuations, and the President is not currently at Trump Tower.
No injuries were immediately reported, and investigators are looking into what may have sparked the blaze.
While President Trump and the First Family now live in the White House, the commander-in-chief maintains a palatial apartment in the 58-story tower. The President was in Washington at the time of the fire.
