The call came in around 1 p.m. Aug. 21 and followed another fire in a borough residence that was quickly extinguished with mutual aid at the scene from Little Ferry and Wood-Ridge firefighters.

A welder's torch apparently ignited the warehouse fire in a trash compactor. Firefighters found workers trying to douse the flames when they arrived.

A firefighter was taken to Hackensack University Medical Center with an unknown injury.
