Satellite Captures New Jersey’s Worst Wildfire in Decades; Wildfire Explodes Across 13,000+ Acres
A massive wildfire known as the Jones Road Fire is tearing through New Jersey’s Pine Barrens, burning over 13,250 acres and threatening thousands of structures.
Captured by NOAA’s GOES East satellite, the fire is so intense it’s visible from space, making it one of the largest wildfires in the state in over 20 years.
The fast-moving blaze, located in Lacey and Ocean Townships, has forced the evacuation of over 5,000 residents and prompted a state of emergency.
Officials warn the wildfire may soon become the largest in New Jersey’s recent history, with no signs of slowing.
Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem has accused Democratic lawmakers of committing felonies following a scuffle at an ICE facility in New Jersey. Representatives Bonnie Watson Coleman, Robert Menendez, and LaMonica McIver were involved in a tense confrontation at the Delaney Hall Detention Center. Newark Mayor Ras Baraka was arrested for trespassing. Democrats deny wrongdoing, saying they were escorted in lawfully and assaulted by ICE agents. Noem and DHS claim lawmakers stormed the building and assaulted officers. The incident has sparked a heated clash over congressional oversight and immigration enforcement.
