There were no injuries reported in a fire that damaged a house in Ridgefield Park overnight.

According to fire officials, the two-alarm blaze ignited at 139 East Grand Avenue Monday night sending firefighters to the scene where they observed smoke and flames coming from the second level of the two-story house just before midnight.

Firefighters at the scene made an aggressive interior attack as heavy fire began to spread inside the walls then extended to the attic officials said.
