The High Bridge Fire Department responded to the blaze on Northwood Drive, the squad said. Initial reports came in around 10 p.m.

Firefighters helped the occupant exit the home where South Branch Emergency Services took over and determined that the victim needed to be flown to a trauma center, HBFD said.

Crews continued to knock down the quickly spreading blaze as other members were tasked with “evacuating and protecting the endanger exposures” to ensure only one exposure was damaged from severe heat.

Exploding propane tanks added an “extra touch” as well, the department said.
