Three people, including an elderly couple, were killed in a pair of separate blazes early Wednesday in the Big Apple, officials said.
The 75-year-old woman and 81-year-old man died in the Queens fire, which broke out around 4:30 a.m. on the fourth floor of a building on 162nd Street near 71st Avenue in Flushing, cops said.
Responding firefighters encountered “an advanced fire condition” in the building, “with a heavy clutter condition,” the FDNY said.
