Video: Camden (NJ) Multiple Alarm Fire – Firefighter Spot

CAMDEN, N.J — Camden\’s mayor has asked the state to investigate fires two days apart that red uced two abandoned warehouses and a score of other buildings to rubble.

Mayor Dana Redd said Monday she\’s asked the state Attorney General\’s Office to help because the similar blazes broke out within 36 hours. One was Thursday afternoon, the other started early Saturday morning.

On Friday, Kenny Chambers, the union president for Camden\’s firefighters, said the response by fire departments from more than three dozen towns in Camden, Burlington, and Gloucester Counties that night left those towns vulnerable had a fire broken out in any of them.

A coordinator oversees delivery of mutual aid within the county, and Camden has given the same assistance to its neighbors, Redd said.

\”Never has mutual aid in responding to the city of Camden depleted the resources of our surrounding towns,\” Redd said.

Redd also disputed an assertion by Chambers that there might have been less property damage had more Camden firefighters been on the payroll. Redd, who has found funds to rehire 31 of the 60 firefighters laid off, said ….
