Toxic smoke is spewing from a manhole on 19th Avenue between 47th and 48th Streets in Boro Park on Wednesday afternoon.
The smoke is apparently due to salt from snow-melting operations getting into the manholes and corroding the electric wires. The smoke is blowing toward homes, and a haze is visible for several blocks.
Firefighters on the scene warn that the smoke is toxic.
