Evesham Township, NJ — A 14-year-old is facing serious charges after officials linked him to one of the recent wildfires that have ravaged South Jersey. The blaze, which erupted on October 30 near Sycamore Drive in Evesham Township, scorched over 50 acres before authorities determined it was intentionally set. This arrest comes as investigators work to uncover whether this incident connects to the larger “Bethany Run Wildfire,” which consumed 375 acres and led to evacuations just days later. With a drought warning and mandatory fire restrictions in place across New Jersey, officials are on high alert as wildfire threats continue amid low rainfall.
