Trailer a complete loss after battery fire

A trailer at Sahs Auto and Collision in Sturgeon Bay was a complete loss after a fire destroyed it on Thursday afternoon. Southern Door Fire Chief Rich Olson says his department was deployed shortly after 1 pm and found the trailer engulfed in flames. He says a malfunctioning supplemental charge to the lithium battery in the trailer caused the fire.

 

 

Olson adds that the estimated loss caused by the fire is unknown since the trailer might have been full of items. According to Olson, an employee called in the fire at Sahs Auto, and no injuries were reported. The Southern Door Fire Department cleared the scene on County S at about 2:30 pm.
