A fire Saturday morning caused an estimated $35,000 damage, mostly to a detached garage of a home on Main Avenue on Sheboygan’s northwest side. The fire in the 3300 block of Main, just west of North Taylor Drive, broke out around 5:15 a.m. Saturday with the first crews of eight units activated under a full department response arriving within 5 minutes.
Sheboygan Firefighters encountered a garage fully engulfed in flames which were starting to spread to the detached home. Those first arriving from the SFD pulled a large handline to the rear of the home, limiting the amount of damage to the main structure. Additional crews proceeded to bring the garage fire under control and eventually extinguished it, remaining on scene from around two hours overhauling the garage and putting out hot spots.
There were no injuries during the event and nobody was displaced. The cause of the fire remains under investigation
