SOHO — A fire broke out at the corner of Mott and Spring streets on Thursday night, FDNY said.

The fire was on the fourth floor of what appeared to be a residential building at 202 Mott St., FDNY said. Twenty-five units responded to the scene after the FDNY received a call about 8:37 p.m.

A 75-year-old woman was sent to New York Downtown Hospital with first degree burns to her head, and five firefighters sustained unspecified minor injuries, the FDNY said.

The fire department is investigating the cause of the fire.

The fire was right across the street from popular pizza joint Lombardi's.
