Piece by piece, crews are now taking apart what Wednesday\u2019s deadly fire in the Bronx left behind.<\/p>\n
Friday evening, workers boarded-up windows and knocked down loose, unstable debris at the burned-out building at East 209th Street and Parkside Place in Norwood.<\/p>\n
According to the FDNY, a second body was recovered Friday after the building first had to be shored up so crews could enter safely.<\/p>\n
One person remains hospitalized, 14 other people were injured and dozens remain displaced, officials said.<\/p>\n
\u201cIt\u2019s horrible feeling helpless, and you feel like nobody can help because, you know, you feel stranded in life,\u201d neighbor Wendy Rameriez said.<\/p>\n
For Tashaila Parks, the wait is different. She last spoke with her aunt on Tuesday, and fears her aunt may be one of the people killed.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe need to know,\u201d Parks said. \u201cI just want prayer for my family, and I just want for this nightmare to be over.\u201d<\/p>\n
Authorities have not confirmed the identity of the body recovered.<\/p>\n
Elise Falcon is among those who still cannot go home. She said she was arrested on Wednesday after trying to get back inside the burning building to save her pets.<\/p>\n
Now, by choice, she\u2019s sleeping in her car with her husband, son and animals due to rules from the Red Cross regarding pets.<\/p>\n
\u201cIt\u2019s very cramped in there, but my dogs are my life. I would do anything for them,\u201d Falcon said.<\/p>\n
The medical examiner has not released the names of either victim.<\/p>\n
The investigation into what caused the fire continues, according to officials.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Piece by piece, crews are now taking apart what Wednesday\u2019s deadly fire in the Bronx left behind.
