Campbellsport Fire Department Responds to Multi-Family Dwelling Fire

At 2:40:21 p.m. Thursday, January 30, 2025, the Campbellsport Fire Department along with automatic mutual aid from the Eden and Kewaskum Fire Departments, and a Rapid Intervention Team consisting of departments from Calumet, Eden, Mt. Calvary, and St. Cloud responded to a multi-family apartment building located at 144-150 New Cassel Street in the Village of Campbellsport for structure fire.
Campbellsport’s first engine arrived on scene within four minutes of being dispatched. The crew found the exterior wall of the apartment building and attached garage wall on fire. Fire was also working up the gable end of the building. The crew quickly knocked down the fire on the exterior. During this time a search was conducted of all tenant spaces and a second handline was taken to the second floor to check for fire extension.
One tenant who resided in the fire unit received minor injuries investigating the fire. The individual was checked out by Campbellsport EMS and released on scene. There were no injuries to firefighters and pets in all units were accounted for.
Fire was contained to one unit in the facility. The unit where the fire started sustained smoke, heat, and water damage. The tenants and their pets were displaced and are being assisted by The American Red Cross. The other three units of the facility remained habitable, and tenants remained in their units for the night.
Assisting the fire departments was the Fond du Lac County Sheriff’s Office, Campbellsport Police Department, The American Red Cross, WE Energies, and Alliant Energy. The fire is currently under investigation but is not considered suspicious. The incident is being investigated by Fond du Lac County Sheriff’s Office Fire Investigator.
