About 100 firefighters were called to put out a two-acre brush fire in a heavily wooded section of Prospect Park in Brooklyn on Friday night, prompting officials to warn residents to stay away as they used drones to identify hot spots.

On Friday night, flames could be seen piercing through trees in the 526-acre New York City park in the middle of the borough.

A 2-acre brush fire broke out in Prospect Park on Friday night amid a lengthy drought and windy conditions that have led to red flag warnings for nearly the entire tri-state area.
