| VIDEOS: FDNY investigating fire that destroyed nine stores, injured 10 firefighters Huge flames destroyed several businesses in Brooklyn on Sunday afternoon. A massive plume of smoke could be seen rising from the 6-alarm fire on Lee Avenue in Williamsburg on Sunday afternoon. Firefighters arrived at the scene four minutes after the initial call just before noon Sunday. Officials say the flames appeared to start in a chocolate shop and spread to at least nine nearby retail stores. David Goldstein inherited the building from his father - it's been in his family since the 1960s. Now, as the landlord for nine longtime small businesses, he wonders what's next. "Yeah, they're all here - most of them took it like, what can you do? We'll make the best of it we'll work together," Goldstein said. A toy store and the kebab grill were among the places destroyed in a hub of commerce for Williamsburg's Hasidic community. WABC-TV ABC 7 NEW YORK 'A proud moment:' Connecticut fire department promotes first 2 women firefighters as captains Two Bridgeport firefighters, Necole Dundy Pittman and Montique Pettway-Moore, took a historic step forward together Friday - breaking a glass ceiling. Both are veteran lieutenants who are now captains — the first women captains in the department's history. "This is a moment to be proud of, and I understand the magnitude of my achievement," said Pettway-Moore. "We're working with our brothers who have never worked with female captains, so it's important just for our department to see us and to realize we are here, and we now manage firehouses now," said Dundy Pittman. Both captains thanked their mentor, Ina Anderson - the department's first woman lieutenant. "I'm grateful that I was the one that was called to open the door," said Anderson. The two women reflected on their lives and what brought them here today. NEWS 12 CONNECTICUT VIDEO: Massive mudslide sends California firefighters running for safety Firefighters in San Bernardino County found themselves running to safety after encountering a massive, boulder-filled mudslide barreling towards them Sunday as heavy rainfall from Tropical Storm Hilary battered the area. KTLA learned that crews at Fire Station 99 in the Forest Falls area heard a loud noise that they went to check out. Video then shows the fast-moving debris field racing down the hill, taking out trees and anything in its path as crew members turn and run back down the rocky terrain to safety. Fortunately, no one was injured but the mudslide, which can be seen winding its way down the hillside and across the road, stranded firefighters at the station until the road can be cleared.
