Strong winds blew the fire from Kohr's Ice Cream in Seaside Park to adjacent buildings, according to The Newark Star-Ledger, and the blaze is also reportedly spreading to the boardwalk.

Hurricane Sandy destroyed most of the boardwalk just last year, The Star-Ledger reported. It was just rebuilt earlier this year.

The cause of the fire is so far unclear. Several people are being treated for smoke inhalation.

The county sheriff is warning visitors to avoid the area, NBC New York reported.
