Members Battle Blaze on Long Bridge Road

January 21st, 2022

Thursday afternoon at around 2pm,

Allamuchy firefighters were requested

for a chimney fire at a residence on Long Bridge Road. First due firefighters arrived on scene and found smoke in the structure, along with fire in the walls behind the chimney with extension into a room. The call was upgraded to a residential structure fire, and a 1st alarm assignment was struck.

Members we're able to quickly stretch a line, pull some walls and ceilings, and extinguish the fire saving the home. Engine 91-61 was first due, followed by Ladder 91-69 and Tanker 91-71.

All firefighters were clear of the scene roughly 2 hours later.

Big thanks to our 1st alarm responders who assisted at the fire - Green Township Fire Department, Hackettstown Fire Department, Independence Township Volunteer Fire Department, Budd Lake Fire Department Co.#1 , and Allamuchy-Green First Aid Squad
