"The fire was under heavy wind which contributed to the rapid spread of the fire onto the second floor where, eventually, five victims were found … two adults and three children," Alicea told ABC News' New York station WABC.
Alicea said that 11 other people who lived in the building survived but are now displaced due to the fire.
