\u201cFire at Trump Tower is out. Very confined (well built building). Firemen (and women) did a great job. THANK YOU!\u201d Trump tweeted.<\/p>\n
Fire officials said no member of the Trump family was in the building at the time.<\/p>\n
\u201cThis was a very difficult fire. As you can imagine, the apartment is quite large, we are 50 stories up. The rest of the building had a considerable amount of smoke,\u201d Fire Commissioner Daniel Nigro said on Twitter.<\/p>\n
About 200 fire personnel responded to the incident that the department said was a four-alarm fire.<\/p>\n
Video on social media showed flames outside of a few windows and black smoke billowing up from the high-rise.<\/p>\n
