COURT HOUSE-- Four forest fires in the same area over the past two days are being called suspicious, according to Forest Fire Service Section Firewarden Bill Love.

The fires all burned in a wooded area behind Acme markets off of Magnolia Road.

Court House Fire Department was called to the latest fire today at 6:14 p.m. The New Jersey State Forest Fire service also responded to the scene with special equipment to contain the blaze which burned about two acres.

Love said police are investigating.

Anyone who may have information on who set the fires are asked to call the Middle Township Police Major Crimes unit at 609-465-8700.
