Arriving chiefs confirmed a working fire in an unattached garage. A quick knock down kept the blaze from extending to the home. The fire was knocked down in about 20 minutes. Mutual aid from Lodi, Rochelle Park and Wallington assisted on the scene, with companies from Maywood, Garfield and Fair Lawn covering firehouses. No injuries were reported.
