Crews have been dispatched to yet another structure fire in our area, this time at a home in Fitchburg. The two occupants are safe but displaced after their apartment building caught fire in the 3100 block of Seminole Highway around 8:13 p.m., City of Fitchburg Fire Chief Joe Pulvermacher tells NBC15 News at the scene.
However, the chief says the occupants will have to find somewhere else to live "for a while." The Red Cross will be offering assistance to those two displaced occupants.
Most of the damage was done to the first level of the three-story apartment building. Each occupant resided in a unit in that building.
Fire departments from Verona, Oregon, Town and City of Madison, and McFarland responded to the box-alarm-level call Thursday evening.
