VIDEO: One Green Bay firefighter was sent to a nearby hospital with an injury after battling a costly structure fire on Monday morning.
According to the Green Bay Metro Fire Department, firefighters were sent to the 1100 block of Klaus Street in the city of Green Bay shortly after 10:00 a.m. for a possible structure fire.
While crews were en route, they were notified that the fire was possibly in the basement, and upon arrival, they found a two-story multi-unit structure with smoke pouring out of the window.
All residents were able to self-evacuate prior to the Green Bay Metro Fire Department’s arrival on the scene.
Crews extinguished the fire in the basement, but the fire had extended into the walls and void spaces within the structure.
