• 5 firefighters taken to hospital after battling Holmdel mansion fire (app.com) — A major fire gutted a large Armand Drive mansion in Holmdel on Friday afternoon, sending five firefighters to local hospitals for evaluation after heat exhaustion and minor injuries. All residents escaped safely as Holmdel and neighboring departments battled intense flames and smoke; the Monmouth County Fire Marshal and township officials are now investigating the cause.
• Starset Share a Single and Video for 'p a r a d 0 x 1 c' - On Tour Now (ghostcultmag.com) — Starset's new single "p a r a d 0 x 1 c" launches alongside a big North American tour that includes a stop at Holmdel's PNC Bank Arts Center on September 6. Local rock fans can catch the band's sci‑fi‑themed live show with Breaking Benjamin, Chevelle, and Kami Kehoe as part of a packed fall schedule of arena and amphitheater dates.
• Living Memorials: Local Artist Mends Broken Hearts with Ink (tworivertimes.com) — Holmdel residents are closely tied to this 9/11 remembrance story, from local firehouses displaying World Trade Center steel to a retired FDNY firefighter who now lives in town.
