Jeanette Meyran — whose husband Lt. Curtis Meyran was one of three firefighters killed in two blazes on Jan. 23, 1995 — fought back tears at an FDNY ceremony marking the 20th anniversary of the catastrophe. “It’s hard to be here,” she said of the Bronx firehouse where the event was held.

Four firefighters died from injuries suffered on the one of the New York City fire department's darkest days. CBS News New York's John Dias reports.

On Jan. 23, 2005, six firefighters in the Bronx were forced to jump from a fourth-floor window as they became trapped while fighting a fire.

It was the first time since 1918 that firefighters' lives were lost at two separate fires or emergencies in the same day, officials said.
