Fire Rips Through 4th Street Homes In Millville, New Jersey, Leaving 2 Children Dead, One Person Hurt And Nearly Two Dozen People Out Of Their Homes
A police presence remains on the scene following a devastating fire in Millville, New Jersey, on April 10, 2025, that claims the lives of two young girls and leaves a community in mourning. The blaze erupts late Wednesday night along 4th Street near Railroad Avenue, tearing through several homes, leveling two, and damaging four others. A significant police presence and a large crime scene are established as authorities respond to the tragedy. Firefighters battle the flames into the early hours of Thursday, searching through smoldering rubble for two missing children. By late morning, family members receive heartbreaking news: one girl's body is found. Hours later, in the afternoon, the body of her sister is also recovered. The girls' parents and two other siblings narrowly escape the inferno, though one person is hospitalized with injuries that are not disclosed. No firefighters are harmed during the response. The fire displaces at least 23 residents, leaving families grappling with the loss of their homes and, for one, the unimaginable grief of losing two children. The cause of the fire remains under investigation as the community begins to rally around those affected. (Photo by Kyle Mazza/NurPhoto)
