FOLSOM - A fire broke out at about 4:15 a.m. today at the Horsin' Around Bar and Grill on the Black Horse Pike. It quickly spread from the rear of the second story of the bar to the front of the building and the attic.

Flames could be seen blazing from the roof of the building as the fire spread. Smoke from the fire could be seen for miles as firefighters tried to gain control.

State Police Sgt. Steve McNally said arson investigators from the agency were at the bar as of shortly after noon.

But McNally, of the Buena Vista barracks added, "That's more or less standard procedure when we don't know the cause of a fire."

McNally said tenants lived on the second floor of the building. No one was injured in the fire, he added.

ATLANTIC CITY - Two boys injured in an early morning fire Oct. 24, have been released from the hospital.

Abalid and Edwin Barahona were sleeping when an electrical malfunction sparked a blaze that filled their first-floor bedroom with thick black smoke.

They were rescued from the Atlantic Gardens apartment, but both suffered from smoke inhalation, and were taken to the Children's Hospital of Philadelphia. Edwin, 9, was upgraded to stable condition the next day, but Abalid, 8, remained critical.

However, both boys were released Sunday night, according to Edwin's godmother, Yesenia Delgado.

"Their mother told me yesterday," Delgado said Monday.

She did not know when they would return to Atlantic City.
