Working Building Fire - 110 Fifth St., Salem
Friday, March 28, 2008

On March 25, 2008 at 11:23 p.m., Pennsville Fire & Rescue was dispatched to assist the Salem Fire Department with a working building fire at a shopping plaza. Due to smoke showing from such a large building, a second alarm was initially dispatched. Quint 5-6 responded as FAST(RIT), but went into service as a truck company as the fire worsened. Firefighters went into the structure but were quickly pulled out due to worsening conditions. Heavy smoke flashed over to fire and Quint 5-6 put its elevated master stream into service, as well as a portable ground monitor. Pennsville firefighters were in service for 4 1/2 hours until released by command.
