Westampton Township, NJ — December 16 — Westampton Township Emergency Services responded to a residential structure fire in Burlington County alongside mutual-aid partners. When crews arrived, they discovered that a single-family home was on fire and that smoke was coming from the roof. To limit the fire and safeguard nearby properties, firefighters advanced handlines, set up a water supply, and carried out interior operations.
During suppression and overhaul, cautious movement and coordinated actions were necessary due to the snow-covered ground and the low temperatures. Multiple departments collaborated on the scene as units operated under county box alarm protocols.
