TINTON FALLS, NJ (MONMOUTH)–Yesterday March 21, 2023, around 4:11 p.m., 9-1-1 operators received a call from a homeowner stating that her house was on fire and fire departments were dispatched. When police arrived, they found a home “fully involved” First arriving firefighters stretched three hose lines, advanced two inside and one to the rear of the structure. From photos and video, it appeared that the fire involved the rear of the structure and spread up the rear of the building to the roof. Once the second floor of the structure was compromised the interior firefighters were evacuated from the structure and firefighters switched to defensive operations. The Monmouth County Fire Marshal’s Office is investigating. Firefighters operated for about two hours at the scene before clearing. No additional details are available at this time.
