Mutual fire crews spent hours battling a late-night residential fire on Presidents Drive in Bridgewater Township Thursday night

Emergency responders were alerted to the blaze at approximately 9:45 p.m. Initial arriving chiefs reported fire showing from a large, two-and-a-half-story single-family home, prompting an immediate second-alarm upgrade that brought in numerous mutual aid units to support suppression efforts.

Units from Bridgewater Districts 3 and 21 responded to the scene alongside neighboring departments. Crews assisted with aggressive fire extinguishment, overhaul, and ventilation operations to bring the structure fire under control.

No immediate injuries were reported from the scene. The cause and origin of the fire remain under investigation by the Bridgewater Township Fire Marshal’s Office.
