For the third time in two weeks there has been a major fire in Camden, New Jersey. The fire was reported around 5:00 this morning at a factory that used to make cleaning products like detergents. Above is video from Dave Hernandez. Here is what Dave wrote about the fire:
Engine 9 arrived on location with a 3 story vacant building. Engine 9 reported all hands going to work and to strike the second and third alarms due to heavy fire conditions. Fire was very doubtful will hold. The fire went to 7 alarms. A pipeline was established due to low water pressure. No injuries were reported.
About 100 homes in Camden's east end are without power as a result of the seven-alarm fire that ravaged an abandoned chemical plant Sunday morning.
Roof collapses at the former Concord Chemical Inc. were reported, but no injuries. Authorities said only one nearby residence had to be evacuated
