Hazmat Crews Respond to Fire at Former Plastics Facility in South Jersey

Not only firefighters but hazmat crews responded after a fire broke out in an old plastics warehouse in South Jersey Thursday afternoon.

The fire broke out before 3 p.m. at 5 Elbow Lane in Burlington, Burlington County – that’s not far from Burlington Center Mall.

The blaze, which county dispatchers said broke out in the abandoned building, quickly spread to two alarms. Dispatchers said that hazmat crews also responded due to chemicals in the building.

No injuries were reported.
