Luxemburg home destroyed by fire

Wood-burning equipment is the likely cause of a house fire in the Town of Lincoln in Kewaunee County Tuesday night.

 

The Luxemburg Community Fire Department was dispatched to the blaze on County Road C just after 7 p.m. to the report of a house fire with flames showing. The call was immediately upgraded to a multiple-alarm fire, triggering a response from the Casco, Brussels-Union-Gardner, New Franken, and Algoma Fire Departments. The home’s occupants were out of the 1.5-story home when the firefighters arrived, with heavy fire reported in the attics at two levels. Firefighters went inside the home to fight the blaze. They were able to knock down most of the fire in the first 30 minutes, but firefighters remained on the scene for about four hours total to put out all the hot spots.

 

The house sustained extensive fire, smoke, and water damage due to the blaze. There were no injuries, and the Red Cross has been contacted to assist the family.

 

Denmark, Carlton, and Southern Door Fire Departments, Luxemburg Rescue, and the Kewaunee County Sheriff’s Department provided additional assistance.
