On Sunday, Marshfield fire crews responded to a shed fire off of East 17th Street. Fire officials say it caught other sheds on fire as well, and started when a homeowner left the fire for just a few minutes.
Deputy Chief of Fire Prevention Everett Mueller said, "The gentleman that was tending the fire had left because his dog ran off, and he went to grab his dog. When he came back, there literally was fire on the shed and it was already spreading to the other two sheds."
Wildfire experts from the Wisconsin DNR say that situations like this happen all too often. Amy Penn, a Forestry Specialist with the Wisconsin DNR, said, "The number one cause of wildfires in Wisconsin is debris burning. So that's people that are cleaning up their yards, dealing with sticks and pine needles and leaves, just trying to clean up their property."
