Wayne, NJ – Fire at senior condominium community contained by sprinkler system

January 12, 2015 viking210

A “minor kitchen fire” at the Four Seasons Active Adult housing complex in Wayne Saturday was “contained by the sprinkler system and extinguished by the Wayne Fire Department,” Wayne Detective Captain Mark McGrath said.

Authorities were called just after 11 a.m. on Jan. 10 and upon arrival, “observed heavy smoke down the hallway of the second level,” according to the police narrative.

The resident and person who called 911 advised authorities “there was an active fire in her kitchen and that there was nobody else inside.”  Moments later, Fire Chief 4 arrived on scene and was able to use the fire extinguisher to put out the flames, according to the narrative. Heavy smoke was vented out by the Wayne Fire Department once the fire was extinguished.

All occupants of all four apartments were left under the care of the building supervisor and made proper arrangements to be picked up by family.
