Crews battle deadly Jennings Creek wildfire

Crews in New York and New Jersey are battling multiple wildfires throughout the region, including the Jennings Creek wildfire.

The fire, burning along an area of the New Jersey-New York state border, has been fuelled by warm, dry weather.

Dariel Vasquez, an 18-year-old volunteer park ranger, was killed over the weekend while fighting to suppress the blaze.

Video from New Jersey shows firefighters tackling the same fire. As of Sunday evening, the blaze was only 10% contained and had burned more than 3,000 acres (12 sq km).
