Within 20 minutes of responding to the first fire, crews were also called out to a house fire in the 700 block of Phillip Desantis Drive in Woodbine. When crews arrived they found fire and heavy smoke coming from the home.

According to the Dennis Fire Company, "This incident was eventually upgraded to a 3rd alarm, bringing in units from Woodbine, Dennis, Ocean View, Goshen, and Stone Harbor to the scene, as well as numerous area departments on cover assignments and units that were responded but cancelled once the situation was placed under control."

It does not appear that there were any injures. Both fires are being investigated by the Cape May County Fire Marshal’s Office.
