A firefighter was injured after a 3-alarm fire in New Haven early Sunday morning, according to city officials.
The blaze happened on Norton Street at approximately 4:15 a.m. Officials said a second alarm was quickly transmitted because there was heavy fire at the back of the building.
Authorities said the building is a very large single family 3-story structure. Crews called a third alarm to provide additional manpower, they said.
One firefighter has injuries and was transported to Yale New Haven Hospital for evaluation.
