25 September 2021 News
A Fond du Lac County Sheriff’s deputy used a Halligan tool to break a window and help a 66-year-old Town of Waupun man and his 31-year-son escape from a fire at N4129 State Highway 26 Friday afternoon. Deputy Derek Rehfeldt was on patrol and stopped after noticing smoke and flames coming from the rear of the two-story home. A lawn mower parked near the garage and entry door started on fire and flames spread to the residence and attached garage trapping the two men inside. The home was considered a total loss. The older man was treated at the scene for minor injuries and was released. A dozen fire departments fought the blaze, which was not considered suspicious. Numerous 9-1-1 calls also reported the fire. The time of the fire call was 1:43 pm.
