Crews from multiple towns battled an overnight fire that started at a home in Ridgefield Park Tuesday.
The fire broke out just after 2:30 a.m. on Brinkerhoff Street. Flames could be seen shooting from the roof and rear of at least one home, with possible impacts to neighboring houses. The blaze reached four alarms just after 3 a.m. as crews from Ridgefield Park and surrounding towns continued trying to douse the heavy flames.
A neighbor said he heard yelling and, when he looked out the window, saw the back of the home fully engulfed in flames. The neighbor said first responders ordered him to evacuate his home as smoke poured in. He said four people live in the home, including two children.
There is no word yet on any injuries or the extent of the damage.
Brinkerhoff Street is located about a block from the New Jersey Turnpike.
