At approximately 01:00 AM Cherry Hill Firefighters were called to the Cross County Plaza in the 2100 block of Rt. 70 for a reported sign fire. The dispatch center started to receive numerous phone calls reporting the roof to be on fire. Firefighters arrived on location and confirmed a working fire in the sign area and extending to the parapet overhang. Two engine companies & one ladder company operated two hand lines to extinguish the fire. Ladder crews cut open the parapet using power saws to fully extinguish the fire. Quick action by the first arriving units saved the rest of the structure.
