VIDEO: Crews from multiple departments are battling a large fire at the Kennel Club of Fort Atkinson. The fire broke out shortly after noon Tuesday and reached five alarms. The Kennel Club of Fort Atkinson occupies several large buildings in a former industrial park on Oak Street. The fire consumed a transit warehouse that houses military tires and other chemicals. That building collapsed and was destroyed, Fort Atkinson Fire Chief Daryl Rausch said. There was no one working in the warehouse at the time of the fire. Everyone who was working in the building to the south has been accounted for, Rausch said. Video from News Chopper 12 showed firefighters using at least three aerial trucks to spray water on the blaze.
