Both the youngsters and their parents got out OK, Police Chief Benjamin Ramos told CLIFFVIEW PILOT.
Leonia’s FAST team and Ridgefield firefighters joined their colleagues at the Hillside Avenue blaze, between West Edsall Boulevard and Ackerman Place, which broke out just after 11:40 p.m.
The lower half of the house sustained severe water damage, Ramos said.
