​January 21 - Fire breaks out at Brownville paper mill

​Fire breaks out at Brownville paper mill
VIDEO: Crews were called to a fire at Neenah Paper in the town of Brownville early Friday morning. The call came in a little after 5 a.m. Someone reported seeing flames above an exhaust fan on the roof. Fire was showing above the roof by the time firefighters arrived. Officials said the bitter-cold temperatures slowed their efforts when water lines froze on their trucks. Nearby hydrants worked fine, though. A majority of the fire was knocked down by around 7 a.m. and crews began chasing hot spots. Bridge Street, where the paper company is located, was closed to traffic while crews were at work. There's no word on the status of plant operations, but fire officials say there's substantial water damage inside the building. Fire investigators were on the seen looking for a cause.

Town of Watertown Home Destroyed by Blaze within Minutes (December 11, 2021)

VIDEO: A house in Watertown was destroyed by fire within minutes Saturday. Just before 5 PM, crews were called to the home at 24521 Gotham Street Road, where there was already heavy fire and smoke. The wind was fanning the flames of the fully involved structure. Officials shut down the road between Route 12 and Spring Valley Drive. They say no one was home at the time and there were no injuries. It was a passerby who called 911. Investigators are still looking into what caused the fire.

This message is from 1st Assistant Chief Jeff Van Brocklin...

To everyone who helped at last night’s fire I can say that you all did your best under some extremely difficult circumstances.  I will speak for all the chiefs and say a big THANK YOU.

My family and myself appreciate everything.  Although one of the family pets and almost all their possessions were lost, we were able to recover the children's precious violins.

Once again thanks for all you do!
