OLD BRIDGE, N.J. (AP) - One home was destroyed and at least two others were severely damaged when a fast-moving fire broke out behind one of the residences in Old Bridge.

Authorities tell News 12 New Jersey (https://bit.ly/24g5s5j) that no one was injured in the fire that broke out late Saturday in the town’s Laurence Harbor section.

But the cause of the blaze remains under investigation.

The fire apparently started behind a Harding Road home and worked its way up a hill to a propane tank which exploded. That home was gutted, while two neighboring homes had undisclosed damages.
