The call from Erie Street came in just after 3:30 a.m. and was put down within an hour, emergency responders said.

Four people got out, including a resident who was later cleared at the Valley Hospital in Ridgewood.

Basement propane tanks apparently fueled the flames, although an immediate cause hadn’t been announced.
