The Kewaunee County Sheriff's Department asked motorists to stay away from an intersection south of Kodan Saturday afternoon.

The department issued the warning just before 2 p.m. Saturday afternoon for motorists to stay away from the intersection of County Road D and Washington Road as the Algoma Fire Department and other local units tend to a grass fire. 

The scene was cleared a few hours later. Algoma Fire Chief Tom Ackerman said more information would be released on Monday.

The Algoma Fire Department received mutual aid from Southern Door Fire (who left their annual picnic fundraiser for the fire), Kewaunee Fire, Casco Fire, and Luxemburg Fire. Kewaunee Rescue, Luxemburg Rescue and the Casco-Lincoln Area First Responder group provided assistance as well with firefighter rehab due to the warm weather. 

The Algoma Fire Department also gave a huge thank you to Butch Steiner for the help.
