BEAVER DAM, WI (WTAQ-WLUK) – Approximately 30 Beaver Dam residents need to find a new place to live.
The apartment that was the site of a Monday explosion and Wednesday detonation of chemicals is set to be demolished.
One man died in Monday’s blast.
Wednesday’s detonation further damaged the facility.
Resident Kathy Hagen is grateful that things weren’t any worse.
“I guess I’m just thankful that my daughter and I walked away. My dog, the cats, everybody in the building was saved; it was only his apartment and him. All of us are OK. You know, everybody from a newborn baby to an elderly woman (live) in there, and all of us walked away OK.
Residents who will have to move have been told they can start getting their belongings from the building Friday.
