BAYSIDE, Queens (WABC) – Two people are in critical condition after a fire tore through a building in Queens Tuesday afternoon.

The flames broke out just after 3 p.m. in a second-floor apartment above an ice cream shop on Bell Boulevard in Bayside.

The fire was extinguished in a matter of minutes, but the damage left behind will last much longer. The flames incinerated one apartment in a row of buildings as others filled with smoke.
