The mayor described the injuries as minor, though one of the firefighters had chest pains and had to be taken to the hospital.He credited first responders with evacuating surrounding buildings to limit any damage. He said crews will make sure the crane fire is fully put out.• Tom Howell Jr. can be reached at
