UPDATE... Here’s a statement from Bob Minarick, Commissioner, Wayne Fire Department.
“At 7:32 this morning Fire Co 1 & 2 were dispatched to 70 Old Turnpike Road for a reported Brush Fire with a golf cart involved. When the first fire units arrived they found the actual fire was now a golf shed, brush, and a golf cart. Also, the best access to the fire was changed to The Willowbrook Golf Center, 366 RT 46 East Service Road. Considering the amount of manpower that would now be necessary for this incident a 2nd alarm was transmitted and Co #5 was added to the call at 7:45. 800’ of hose was laid from the fire hydrant on the service road to the scene of the fire. The blaze was quickly contained but due to the large amount of items and product in and around the shed the overhaul was extensive. Crews continued to wet everything down and all apparatus were back in service by 9:45. The incident is under investigation by the Wayne Fire Bureau. No injuries were reported, the weather was sunny and approximately 56 degrees. Four fire pumper apparatus were in service at the scene. The Wayne PD provided scene control and the Wayne FAS was on scene should there have been any FD injuries.”
