TRENTON, NJ (MERCER)–Trenton firefighters responded to well involved set of row homes on fire early this morning around 6:00 am. The fire in the 200 block of Tyler Street was well involved on arrival and spreading to a total of 5 homes.

Compounding the problem is a TWW fire hydrant out of service right across from the buildings. Trenton firefighters quickly established water supplies from surrounding hydrants in three different directions by laying large diameter hose down the street in multiple directions.

Two firefighters were transported to the hospital, one for a burn and the other a minor injury. No occupants reported injured.

The fire went to 3 alarms before being brought under control.

The fire is under investigation. No further information is available at this time.
