    Here is a copy of the news article:

    Eight injured when waterfront home burns in early morning blaze
    Margaret F. Bonafide • July 19, 2009


    TOMS RIVER — An early morning fire at 256 Kathryn St. in the Ocean Beach section sent eight people to the hospital, including one woman who was flown to a burn unit, officials said.

    Neighbors of the emblazoned house were awakened by screams and the popping noises of breaking glass and burning wood, they said.

    The house was occupied by 17 persons who were at the address because they were attending a 21st birthday party the evening before, said District 1 Fire Chief John Novak.

    At first when firefighters arrived they were told that a person was trapped on the second floor of the two-story structure, Novak said. Firefighters did an initial search for the person but did not find anyone inside. The firefighters were forced to evacuate the house because of the extensive fire, he said.

    The person they were searching for was found outside the house, Novak said.

    Gail Marini, 69, lives on San Fernando Drive, across the lagoon from the waterfront house. "I woke up about 5 a.m. to screaming and sounds of breaking glass," Marini said. "I came out on to the porch to see a massive black cloud" in the
    sunrise light, she said. "But the screaming that woke me up."

    Toms River Fire Company was assisted by Seaside Heights, Ocean Beach, East Dover, Lavallette fire companies. The Triboro First Aid, Toms River Police EMS and Monoc paramedics assisted.

    The fire remains under investigation by the Toms River Police, Ocean County Fire Marshals Office and the Ocean County Prosecutors Office. The Ocean County Sheriffs Department also assisted.

    Those shore houses are always rented & occupied by lots of people... These kids get together & pool their money to party. It is really normal... I am just praying that no one really got burned or hurt that bad... Thank God they all got out with their lives & no one was killed... God Forbid!
