A fire tore through multiple homes in Garfield Saturday night, police say.
The fire started at a home on 168 Van Winkle Ave. and quickly spread to homes next door.
A car in one of the driveways was also destroyed by the fire.
New Jersey Transit service was canceled temporarily at Garfield's Plauderville station because train tracks were right behind the homes.
The Red Cross was at the scene to help residents who were displaced.
It's unclear how many people are without a home and if anyone was injured.
