Winslow Township, N.J. — October 30 — Firefighters responded to a reported vehicle fire in the Cedar Brook section of Winslow Township after the Camden County Communications Center dispatched units to the scene. While responding, crews received updated information indicating that multiple tractors and trailers were involved.
Battalion 25D arrived and confirmed the report. Engine 25 deployed a 1¾-inch handline for fire suppression, while Squad 25 established a water supply from a hydrant along Route 73. The water supply operation temporarily required the closure of Route 73.
Additional water supply resources were requested, with water tenders from Winslow Township and Waterford Township responding to support firefighting operations. Crews deployed additional handlines and worked to extinguish the fire. The tanker operations also helped support the water supply effort and allowed Route 73 to reopen.
The Camden County Fire Marshal's Office investigated the incident. No injuries were reported, and officials reported no threat to the surrounding community.
