What a butthead! A massive, fiery car explosion that injured seven firefighters on a Bronx street Wednesday night was caused by someone’s flippantly flicked cigarette butt, officials said. Smoke-eaters were responding to a garbage fire in front of a building between Intervale Avenue and Kelly Street in Longwood around 7:06 p. m.
