All-Hands House Fire In Cinnaminson Gets Quickly Extinguished

CINNAMINSON, NJ — An all-hands fire damaged a home Wednesday morning in Cinnaminson. But a quick response helped to prevent the blaze from spreading further, officials said.

The fire occurred at about 8 a.m. Wednesday on the 1500 block of Essex Drive. Because of a shift change taking place, both Engines 2011 and 2021 arrived within two minutes, according to the Cinnaminson Fire Department.

Crews found a fire in the home's attic and quickly extinguished it before it could spread further. Exterior photos from Cinnaminson FD show damage to the roof.

Multiple agencies from surrounding communities also assisted at the scene — the Palmyra Fire Department, Riverton Fire Department, Riverside Fire Company No. 1, Lenola EMS Station 318, and Moorestown First Aid & Emergency Squad. The Delran Fire Department covered the township while crews responded.
