HILLSDALE Four homes were evacuated near Kinderkamack Road and Dwight Avenue on Tuesday morning after a worker struck a gas line, causing a construction vehicle to burst into flames.
No one was injured in the gas fire, Hillsdale Fire Chief William Hassler said. Gas needed to be shut off in the area, though, as nearly 30 firefighters from Hillsdale and Woodcliff Lake put out the flames that engulfed the heavy equipment.
Contractors started working in the area before 8 a.m. to replace gas lines and struck one during the work, Hassler said.
No houses were damaged by the fire. No outages were listed in Hillsdale on PSE&G s online outage map by 9:30 a.m.

A group of Paterson residents fled to their backyard as a three-alarm fire burned on Lafayette Street early Friday but were eventually rescued, a city fire official said.
The group of about 10 people were trapped in the yard as the alleys on either side of them were blocked by fire as flames spread to three buildings, Deputy Fire Chief Frank Calamita said. Firefighters sprayed the area with water and quelled the fire enough to create an escape route as police on scene helped lead the people to safety, Calamita said.
No one was injured.
The fire started at about 3 a.m. and was brought under control at about 5:45 a.m. The flames left heavy damage on the three buildings, Calamita said.
