 Firefighters  were  in  
 hog  heaven  last  week  
 when a fire at a Brooklyn  
 warehouse set loose some  
 potbellied pigs. 
 At 1:23 am on March  
 24, FDNY personnel responded  
 to a call regarding  
 a two-alarm blaze at  
 Jabus Building Corps, located  
 at 98 Van Dyke Street  
 in Red Hook. Firefighters  
 got to the scene and were  
 met with heavy fire and  
 smoke in the back of the  
 one-story brick building. 
 The building was  storing  
 masonry  and  construction  
 equipment  on  
 site  sight  since  the  1980s.  
 Firefighters used four  
 hose  lines  to knock down  
 the bulk of the fire. 
 A few potbellied pigs  
 were found and rescued  
 from the smoky scene, and  
 first responders were spotted  
 trying to corral them. 
 The fire was brought  
 under control by 2:59 am.  
 Three firefighters were  
 taken to local hospitals  
 for their injuries. The Fire  
 Marshal’s office will determine  
 the cause of the fire.
