The Abington Terrace home just off Maple Avenue sustained minor damage in the noontime Nov. 20 second-floor blaze.

The homeowner declined ambulance transport and said he'd drive himself to the hospital.

Fire officials said original suspicions that a torch being used to burn paint off a baseboard caused the fire were incorrect. They didn't say how it started, however.

Mutual aid responders included firefighters from Fair Lawn, Hawthorne and Ridgewood.
