Bergenfield NJ 2nd alarm, 29 Bogert Pl. 1-2-22

Just before 19:00 on January 2nd 2022, the Bergenfield NJ Fire Dept continued their streak of working fires when they were dispatched to 29 Bogert Pl for a report of a garage fire. Dispatch advised responding fire units that patrol officers were on scene reporting a working fire. As companies arrived they reported a working fire in the garage which was attached to a 2 story frame private dwelling. Heavy fire was venting from the garage and threatening the rest of the home. A 2nd alarm was requested as the first in engine stretched a 1-3/4" hand line and quickly got water on the fire. The main body of fire was knocked down in under 20 minutes with inor extension, however due to limited access to the still burning vehicle in the garage, a winch was used off of Rescue 1 to pull the vehicle from the garage and allowing companies to complete overhaul and extinguishment. No injuries were reported and the fire was placed under control in about an hour.
