Firefighters battled a heavy fire on the top floor of a four-story apartment building in Brooklyn Tuesday morning.

The three-alarm fire at 1299 Eastern Parkway in the Crown Heights section was reported at 7:52 a.m., said Fire Department spokesman David Billig.

“There’s a very heavy volume of fire on the top floor,” said Billig.

The building was evacuated and there were no immediate reports of injuries, he said.

Billig said 138 firefighters and 33 fire units responded to the blaze.
