Two men are wanted for questioning in connection with the massive forest fire that burned through over 11,000 acres of the Pine Barrens earlier this month.
The New Jersey State Police released a photo of two men standing next to Jeeps with a huge plume of smoke rising in the background and said they “may have information about the fire.”
Investigators have said the blaze, which began on March 30 in the Penn State Forest, was likely caused by human activity in an area of the forest known for illegal bonfires.
The New Jersey State Police is seeking the public’s assistance with identifying two men wanted in connection to the Spring Hill wildfire in Burlington County.
Officials have declined to say whether they thought the fire was intentional or accidental.
The fire was contained on April 1 after it scorched 11,638 acres and was one of the larger forest fires New Jersey has seen in recent years.
Anyone who could help identify the men was asked to contact New Jersey State Police
