Sicklerville, NJ — December 11 — A reported residential dwelling fire in the township's Sicklerville area prompted the Winslow Township Fire Department and mutual aid agencies to respond. When Platoon B's Squad 25 and Battalion 25 got on the scene, they found that the fire was getting worse. The crew of Squad 25 started fire assault operations after deploying a 1.75-inch suppression handline. Crews finished extinguishing and checked for fire extension when more companies arrived, but none were discovered.
During the event, assistance was provided by the Camden County Department of Public Safety, Winslow Township Police Department, Winslow Township Emergency Medical Services, and mutual aid fire companies. Neither first responders nor civilians reported any injuries. A safe and effective outcome was attributed by fire officials to well-coordinated activities and prompt mutual assistance support.
