There was a lack of control by fire departments at the scene of a blaze that took the life of a Colby firefighter in March, according to the Wisconsin Department of Safety and Professional Services. Lt. Jamison Kampmeyer was battling a fire at the Abby Theatre in Abbotsford on March 4 when the roof collapsed, killing him and injuring four other firefighters. The report into Kampmeyer's death found that neither the Colby nor Abbotsford fire departments had overall control of the firefighting effort, according to WSAW-TV.
