A late-night car fire at a home in Nasewaupee Wednesday night is leaving firefighters and the car's owner scratching their heads as to the cause.

The Southern Door and Sturgeon Bay Fire Departments responded to the home on Sawyer Drive just past 11:45 p.m. to the sight of a car fully engulfed in flames.

The departments’ firefighters were able to quickly put the fire out and left shortly after midnight. The car was completely destroyed, but the quick action of the firefighters was able to prevent the flames from damaging a nearby deck.

Southern Door Fire Chief Rich Olson says the damage sustained to the vehicle will make it impossible to identify the cause of the fire. The owner of the vehicle told Olson that the vehicle had been parked outside and not used since 3 p.m. that afternoon
