FOND DU LAC (WLUK) — A Fond du Lac auto shop was heavily damaged by an overnight fire.
At 11:46 p.m. Wednesday, crews were dispatched to 322 N. Military Road for a report of smoke in the area.
Upon arrival crews found smoke showing from the garage doors of an auto shop that was attached to other businesses.
Firefighters were able to get inside by cutting an access hole to get water on the fire.
Once opened there was heavy fire and smoke inside of the auto shop. The fire was under control after about 90 minutes of firefighting.
The damaged sustained to the auto shop and contents inside are a total loss. Crews were able to contain the fire to the auto shop and stopped the fire from spreading to the attached buildings.
