three-box alarm fire in Neenah sent fire crews from across the Fox Valley to the Neenah Foundry. “The first thing was the sirens and all the fire departments coming in and there was a bunch of black smoke on top of the foundry,” says Jacob Lucas who lives across from the foundry and says he saw the fire as it was burning. Jacob was particularly worried about the fire since he has a personal connection to the foundry. “My father used to work here and if this would have happened when he was there I would have felt terrible so I’m really feeling bad for the families that went through this traumatic experience,” says Lucas. Firefighters told Local Five they received the call around 10 a.m. The fire started in the basement of the foundry and then worked its way up to other levels of the building.
