Staff reportedly used a fire extinguisher to put out the fire in a bathroom. No children were in the facility at the time and all staff had evacuated prior to firefighters arriving on scene.<\/p>\n<p>The fire department said the incident was a good reminder during fire prevention week to ensure fire extinguishers are accessible, but to only try to extinguish fires if it can be done safely.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/1350kman.com\/category\/local-news\/manhattan-local-news\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">Click here for more local Manhattan news.<\/a><\/p>\n<p><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-439963 lazyload\" alt=\"\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/mfd2-1.jpg\"  data- data-eio-rwidth=\"1024\" data-eio-rheight=\"768\"\/><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-439963\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/mfd2-1.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\"   data-eio=\"l\"\/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"No injuries were reported after a brief electrical fire was reported Tuesday morning at the Boys &amp; Girls&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":2262,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[35],"tags":[2858,2859,75,2860,84,2861,2862,83,2863,9,24,63,2864,2865],"class_list":["post-2261","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-manhattan","tag-boys-and-girls-club-manhattan","tag-electrical-fire-manhattan","tag-manhattan","tag-manhattan-fire-department","tag-manhattan-headlines","tag-manhattan-ks-fire","tag-manhattan-local-news","tag-manhattan-news","tag-manhattan-youth-center-fire","tag-new-york","tag-new-york-city","tag-nyc","tag-riley-county-emergency-response","tag-structure-fire-manhattan-kansas"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2261","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=2261"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2261\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/2262"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=2261"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=2261"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=2261"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
