Ridgewood NJ, A smoking vehicle that was involved in a rear end crash on East Ridgewood Avenue near Kenilworth Road resulted in the precautionary dispatch of Ridgewood FD units on Friday afternoon, 03/31. Steam leaking from a smashed radiator was determined to be the actual culprit and FD units packed up and returned to their headquarters right after disconnecting the vehicle’s battery. Ridgewood PD issued one (1) summons in connection with the crash and a flatbed tow truck removed the wrecked vehicle from the roadway. Traffic on westbound East Ridgewood Avenue was detoured for about 30 minutes due to the crash. No injuries were reported in the incident.
