PHILADELPHIA — Two Philadelphia firefighters are dead this morning after a wall collapsed on them while they fought a massive warehouse fire.

Fire officials said five firefighters were inside a furniture store adjacent to the vacant warehouse when a wall collapse trapped them.

Fire Commissioner Lloyd Ayers identified the firefighters as a 60-year-old man and a 25-year-old man.

Hot embers whipped by strong winds ignited seven other structures, including six homes. Those fires were extinguished.

Three other firefighters were injured with one admitted to a hospital.

Ayers said the last time the city’s fire department lost multiple members in one fire was in 2004.
