Four people were injured in a two-alarm blaze that tore through a home on Wade Street in Jersey City Tuesday morning, Jersey City officials said. The fire, at 86 Wade St., is just down the block from the site of a four-alarm blaze that damaged multiple homes three months ago. Jersey City firefighters responded to the two-and-a-half story home between Rutgers Avenue and Martin Luther King Drive at roughly 8:15 a.m. The fire was mostly knocked down by 8:50 a.m. None of the injuries are considered to be life-threatening, Jersey City spokesman Kimberly Wallace-Scalcione said. A total of 17 people, 14 adults and three children, are displaced and expected to be assisted by the American Red Cross.
