Kiosk catches fire at popular NYC holiday market

A fire broke out inside a holiday market kiosk in Midtown Manhattan Friday morning, officials said.

There were no injuries.

The blaze ignited shortly before 9:30 a.m. at a booth in Bryant Park’s Winter Village and was extinguished a short time later, the New York Fire Department said.

The kiosk and an adjacent booth were damaged and the roof off the ice-skating rink sustained “heat impingement,” according to NYFD Battalion Chief Joseph Castellano.

The cause of the fire is under investigation, the fire department said.

The department posted pictures of the blaze’s aftermath, showing the damaged kiosk and piles of burned debris.

NBC New York reported the shops at Bryant Park are set to close for the season on Jan. 5, but the ice skating rink and the winter wonderland are open through March.
