Brick Township Pizzeria Destroyed in Saturday Fire


Pizzeria Fire Damages Brick Township Shopping Plaza

BRICK TWP, NJ — A devastating three-alarm fire destroyed a shopping plaza in Brick Township, home to Cuzzins Pizza. The fire led to a roof collapse while firefighters were actively combating the flames at the plaza located at 358 Herbertsville Road. The blaze escalated quickly, prompting Brick Township Firefighters and additional crews from surrounding towns to respond.

The situation intensified as one firefighter was initially unaccounted for during the firefighting efforts. However, an update later confirmed that all firefighters were accounted for. Herbertsville Road, which was closed due to the emergency, has since been reopened.

Jay’s Food Mart also suffered extensive damage.
