This afternoon TF81 was dispatched to a reported Dwelling fire in the area of 12th. and Central Ave. in the Glendora section.
Chief 8, Squad 88 and Quint 7 arrived in location to smoke showing from division A. Squad 88 stretched a hand-line to the front door and Quint 7 forced entry. The fire was held to the front porch area. Crews performed a primary search and removed 15 small dogs all were fine.
Squad 81 was rerouted to Runnemede for a Natural Gas leak that was flowing from a cut line from a contractor.
The fire doesn't appear to be suspicious and is being investigated by Fire District No.1 Fire Marshall.

What will happen to the 15 dogs?
TF81 was dispatched late this afternoon for a reported dwelling fire in the Fernwood section of Glendora. 8101 reported a large black column of smoke from a mile out. SD88 was instructed to pick up the hydrant and lay in and proceed with a large caliber hand-line to the rear to knock the fire down. Crew were hampered by arching Power lines to the dwelling. The arriving companies were put to work as they arrived on location.Quint 7 stretched a additional hand-line in the front door. Fire crews from Glendora, Somerdale, Chews Landing and Runnemede rotated in and out on the hose lines and performed overhaul operations.
Only one reported injury to a firefighter and they refused treatment.
The fire is under investigation by the Camden County FM and GTPD.

Please keep the family in your prayers during this difficult time.
This was my Grandparent’s home for over 50 years. I loved this little piece of Glendora & I’m so heartbroken to hear this & I am truly sorry to the family who currently owns this home, my heart goes out to you & my prayers 🙏💔
We’re you guys able to save the house or is it considered a complete loss???
Anyone have any info on the family? Can we donate things to help?
So sorry to see this!!🙏😥

Sad news from our sister station in Blackwood.The Blackwood Fire Company mourns the loss of Life Member and Tower Ladder 84 Chauffeur Mark Cocchi. Mark has faithfully served as a volunteer firefighter for more than 40 years. Mark's passing hurts beyond words and typing this is hard. Mark was a brother, mentor, friend and a story teller. Mark absolutly LOVED the fire service and "his" tower ladder. Our hearts are broken and our words cannot find the right thing to say right now other than rest easy Mark and we will see you again!
When funeral arrangements are made we will post them however for now we ask that you keep Mark's family in your throughts and prayers.
So sorry for the community’s loss of a loyal first responder , May he Rest In Peace . God has just gained another 😇
Rest in peace Brother 🙏😇❤️
Condolences 💐
🙏🙏💙
