Car Fire Jams Route 4

A car fire temporarily closed eastbound Route 4 in Englewood.

Flames quickly engulfed the sedan in front of the BP station just after the Sterling Boulevard entrance to the highway, sending plumes of black smoke skyward, shortly after 2:30 p.m.

Englewood firefighters doused the blaze while eastbound Route 4 remained closed at Webster Avenue. 

Traffic quickly backed up toward Hackensack while rubberneckers slowed the flow on the westbound side.

No injuries were immediately reported.

Firefighters extinguish the Route 4 sedan blaze.
