The morning of April 12 went pretty much according to plan for John Brennan, owner of John Joseph Coffee in Sauk City. That is until two members of the Sauk City Fire Department came into the coffee roaster’s door at 112 Van Buren St., in full protective gear with axes in hand. Rewind to 45 minutes earlier: Brennan and a friend were in Brennan’s back room roasting a week’s supply of product. “We saw a fire truck going by out the window,” Brennan said. “I remember saying I hoped there wasn’t an accident.” Little did Brennan know the Sauk City Fire Department was on its way to a report of a smoke-like smell in the village’s municipal building, home to village administrative offices on the main level, and the Sauk Prairie Police Department on the lower level.
