Firefighters had to wait for a PSE&G crew to secure power before dousing the burning vehicles at the Summit Gardens complex off Essex Street near northbound Route 17 shortly before 1:30 a.m. Friday.

They then prevented the fire from spreading.

No injuries were reported and no residential property was damaged in the Arcadia Road incident.
