Fire breaks out at Nassau University Medical Center, officials say
A small electrical fire broke out inside Nassau University Medical Center in East Meadow early Sunday morning, fire officials said.
East Meadow Fire Department responded to the second floor around 5:20 a.m., a fire official said, and found a fire caused by an electrical wire in the ceiling in one of the rooms.
No one was injured or evacuated, the fire official said.
The fire occurred in an unoccupied X-ray room, away from patients, NUMC spokesman Todd Shapiro said.
