Cobble Hill Fire Breaks Out At Moo Burger

COBBLE HILL, BROOKLYN — A fire broke out on Thursday afternoon inside the wall cavities of Moo Burger on Court Street at Baltic Street, according to the FDNY.

After the fire department got a call reporting the fire around 2:30 p.m., at least 60 firefighters and paramedics rushed to 240 Court St., an FDNY spokesman told Patch.

The fire was declared "under control" around 45 minutes later, at 3:16 p.m., the spokesman said.

No injuries were immediately reported.

Although it wasn't immediately clear what started the Moo Burger fire, a spokesman for the FDNY said an electrical wire inside one of the burger joint's walls could have sparked it. "There are voids inside the walls — you have insulation and wires in there," he explained.
