The analysis began around 4:34 in the morning. Fire crews addressed a modest blaze at a residence on East Holly Avenue. Firefighters found fire inside the apartment's walls and put it out promptly. No injuries were reported. The Pitman Fire Marshal’s Office is examining the cause. 

At roughly 5:50 a.m., Ladder 28 and Chief 281 were sent out after the first incident was cleared. to assist at a building fire in Washington Township. 

The first units from Washington Township were sent for an activated fire alarm. When they arrived, crews saw smoke coming from the building and discovered a fire involving a machine. The building's sprinkler system kept the fire contained. 

Ladder 28 and Chief 281 stayed at the location for an hour and then were let go.
