Woodbury Apartment Fire Causes Evacuation, Hurts Two

A small apartment fire prompted the evacuation of some 40 residents at the Colonial Park Apartments on South Evergreen Avenue in Woodbury, NJ. 

KYW's Al Novack reports the small  blaze was reported around 4:30pm on Sunday inside one unit at the complex.

The blaze was brought under control in less than 10 minutes and confined to one unit. 

Two residents of the burned-out unit suffered minor burns and smoke inhalation.  Both were
treated at a nearby hospital. 

After the building was aired out, all the evacuated residents were allowed to return to their apartment units. 

The cause was not immediately known.
