Two Troy firefighters escaped serious injuries after being thrown by a flashover while battling a blaze Sunday night.
The firefighters were sent down the stairs after fire "basically exploded," Fire Chief Tom Garrett told The Times-Union.
Firefighter Dave Judge was taken to Samaritan Hospital for a suspected concussion.
Crews responded to the fire at 468 Ninth Avenue in the Lansingburgh section of the city around 5:45 p.m.
It took firefighters more than two hours to bring the blaze under control.
The cause of the fire is currently under investigation.
