Authorities say one cat was rescued Sunday Morning from a De Pere apartment fire that caused an estimated $50,000 in damages and sent six people to the hospital to be treated for smoke inhalation. According to a release from the De Pere Fire Rescue, crews from the De Pere Fire Rescue and the Fox River Fire District responded at about 6:15 a.m. to an apartment building on 1007 Coral Street for a reported fire. Officials say the first fire unit was on the scene in minutes and saw residents exiting the building with smoke coming from the front door. The fire was then determined to be in the basement of apartment 1. Crews were able to extinguish the fire quickly and were able to contain it to mainly the basement preventing damage to the rest of the adjoining apartments which were later safely reoccupied by residents.
