A massive wildfire spread to nearly 4,000 acres of the New Jersey Pine Barrens, prompting evacuations as firefighters worked to contain the blaze, officials said Wednesday.
The fire in Manchester Township was 50% contained Wednesday morning after reaching 3,859 acres — or more than six miles — of federal, state and private land, the New Jersey Forest Fire Service said.
Responders battled 200-foot flames but haven’t reported any injuries. About 170 households in the area were evacuated.
