A passerby alerted authorities to the fire that broke on the first floor of DP's Pub and Seafood Grill on River Drive shortly after 2:30 a.m. Friday, April 12, responders said. Firefighters found flames engulfing the bar and spreading quickly through the upper floors. Two second-floor tenants were treated for smoke inhalation at the scene after responding Garfield police officers got them out. The firefighter was taken to Hackensack University Medical Center. The buik of the fire was knocked down in a little over an hour. It was declared under control shortly before 5:30 a.m. The cause remains under investigation.
