The state Forest Fire Service is responding to Bass River State Forest for another fire near the site of last week's blaze that scorched 677 acres of pinelands, a fire official said Tuesday.

A watchman in a fire tower detected smoke Tuesday morning off Dan's Bridge Road, and four or five engines and a bulldozer responded, said Division Fire Warden Bert Plante. The firefighters found four or five acres burning in a section that was not touched by last week's blaze, and a vehicle in the middle of it.

A combination of recent rain and light winds make it unlikely this fire will spread, Plante said.

State Police are investigating whether the vehicle was stolen, Plante said.

ATLANTIC CITY-- Fire crews battled a vicious two-alarm fire this morning, which sent one firefighter to the hospital.

Each fire burned the rears of two stories of those buildings. Fire officials said it took around 15 minutes to get the fire under control.

One firefighter was sent to the hospital, but is said to be in stable condition.

The fire is still under investigation.

PLEASANTVILLE — Firefighters contained an attic fire Sunday on Decatur Avenue, avoiding injuries or significant damage to the home.

Acting Battalion Chief Stephen Wilkins said officials determined the fire was electrical in nature and was clearly accidental. The house was only damaged by smoke and water damage. No one was injured. Two engines and one ladder truck responded to the incident.
