Anyone have any information on the fire last night in Cinnaminson on S. Fork Landing Road? Heard there was a confirmed fatal. Hope everyone else it OK.
Thanks.

They pulled the victim out and he was pronounced on scene.
A lot of fire upon arrival of the first arriving apparatus.

TF 201, E101, 809 dispatched to S. Forklanding for a dwelling. Medics added for victims trapped. 1010 arrived and placed all companies in service. 1 story SFD heavy fire Division A. E2012 arrived and went in service with a 1 3/4" line. Fire conditions too severe for any survivors in the dwelling. Crew used a handline to begin extinguishing as another crew made their way in to do a search once safe enough to do so. Victim found in bathrrom and removed. Victim was DOA, as was a dog found later. Evac tone was hit once victim was removed due to fire conditions and problem getting a water supply.
Great work done by all involved. Unfortunately, it was one of those calls where we didn't stand a chance from the beginning. Nothing anybody can do about it. Besides the one fatality, no injuries and the most important part - we all went home.
