A vehicle fire caused by dried manure on the underbody of the car was extinguished quickly Tuesday night in Nasewaupee.  The Southern Door Fire Department responded shortly before 7 pm to County Road MM just north of Highway 57.  Southern Door Fire Chief Rich Olson says the vehicle’s driver was notified by other people who pulled up next to him to inform him of the smoke billowing from under his car.

Olson says no injuries were reported and the midsize Sports Utility Vehicle was towed away from the scene with the extent of the damages unknown.  He adds that it is a good reminder to make sure your vehicle’s undercarriage is free of any debris before driving anywhere.
