An on-call Viroqua firefighter saw smoke coming from a nearby business when he came into the station on Sunday. He called the fire in around 7:50 a.m. Damage from the fire was mostly contained to an office in the south of the building, but that office was a total loss. The ceiling had to be torn out, and the attic had damage from water and light fire damage. The Viroqua Police Department, Tri-State Ambulance, Xcel Energy and Madison Gas & Electric assisted with the scene.
