A 54-year old Green Bay man was found dead in a tractor on fire in Luxemburg early Saturday morning. Just before 1 AM the Kewaunee County Sheriff Department received a call of a tractor on fire with someone possibly inside. They found the tractor had rolled into some power lines on Tonet Rd north of County Road K.
Sheriff deputies, Luxemburg Fire & Rescue, Red River First Responders and Wisconsin Public Service responded. Once the fire was extinguished, the tractor was moved to a safer place where the jaws of life were used. The tractor operator had died by the time they got to him.
The accident is being investigated and the man's name is not being released pending notification of his family.
