At approximately 0700 hours, Task Force 6 was dispatched to the area of Woodbury Terrace and Laurel Avenue in West Deptford Township for a reported dwelling fire. Ladder 5 responded with a staffing of five, along with Chief 5, Deputy 5, 502, and Battalion 5. Gloucester County Communications received multiple calls reporting a house fire in the area.
Squad 6 arrived in the 500 block of Audubon Avenue and found a one-story, single-family home with exterior fire showing from the rear and possible extension into the dwelling. Chief 6 arrived and requested the working fire box.
Ladder 5 arrived second due and operated as the first-due truck company. The crew performed primary and secondary searches, checked for extension, and assisted with overhaul. The fire was quickly brought under control, with no injuries reported to civilians or firefighters. The fire is under investigation by the Gloucester County Fire Marshal’s Office.
While still on location cleaning up, crews were dispatched back to the City of Woodbury for an activated fire alarm in the 500 block of Prince Street. Crews cleared both incidents and were available within the hour
