MARSHFIELD, WI (WSAU) — A home on East 4th Street in Marshfield suffered significant damage after a fire on Tuesday evening.
Crews were called to the property just before 7:00 PM to find thick, black smoke coming from the lower level of the home.
Two interior attack crews entered the home and found fires on both the basement and first floor. They managed to extinguish both fires and ventilate the structure.
Crews noted that the thick smoke created near-zero visibility in the home. Some of the smoke and fumes were toxic.
Major damage was reported in the basement, while the first floor suffered minor damage. Smoke damage was reported throughout the home.
Everyone inside the home made it out unharmed, and no injuries were reported among the firefighters. The cause of the fire remains under investigation.
