Victim identified in water tank explosion

More details are being shared about a fatal accident that killed a person at Harbour Village Resort and Campground on Saturday. 

 

Emergency personnel reported to Harbour Village Resort before 7:45 a.m. after an explosion was heard. When the responding deputy arrived, he found the deceased person near the damaged building. He has since been identified as 27-yar-old Sean Marquardt of Algoma. According to the Egg Harbor Fire Department, park employees were using the approximately 3,000 gallon water tank to tank to flush the water lines as the resort winterizes their facilities for the end of the season when it exploded. 

 

The Brown County Medical Examiner’s Office and the Wisconsin State Fire Marshal was called in to assist in the investigation. No further information will be shared until proper identification and an autopsy are completed. Emergency personnel from the Egg Harbor Fire Department, Egg Harbor Emergency Medical Responders, Door County Emergency Services, and the Door County Sheriff’s Office responded to the scene, some of which were present until they were released at 8:40 p.m.
