Fire at Westchester Mansion Leaves Two Teens Critically Injured
A severe fire broke out at a mansion in Westchester County, New York, critically injuring two teenagers. The blaze erupted around 2:30 a.m. at a home in Cortlandt Manor, with flames engulfing the structure and trapping four residents inside. Firefighters, led by Mohegan Lake Fire Chief Thomas Eade, executed a rescue operation using ground ladders to access the second-floor windows where the victims were located. The two teenagers, a 17-year-old girl and a 15-year-old boy, suffered severe burns covering approximately 50% of their bodies. They were transported to local hospitals, with the girl stabilized at Westchester Medical Center and the boy still undergoing stabilization at NewYork-Presbyterian Hudson Valley Hospital. The cause of the fire is currently under investigation, though it is suspected to be electrical in nature.
