Fire breaks out at the Christmas market in Bryant Park in New York

A devastating fire gutted a stall at the famous Bryant Park Christmas market on Friday morning, sending huge plumes of black smoke billowing across the Manhattan skyline.

The fire broke out around 9:20 a.m., sending heavy clouds of fire erupting from the shed set up in the park on West 40th Street between Fifth and Sixth avenues, according to the FDNY and video from the scene.

About half an hour later, firefighters continued to work to put out the flames.

There was initially no information about injuries or the cause of the inferno.

The fire occurred about a week and a half after another fire torched part of the festive Herald Square shopping corridor on Broadway between West 35th Street and West 36th Street.

The fire destroyed 18 stores that sold everything from bratwurst to glass jewelry to T-shirts, according to an online fundraiser supporting vendors.
