Heavy fire damage was caused to a multi-unit apartment building in Howard.
The Howard Fire Department was called yesterday evening (October 1st) just after 6:00 pm to the 1200 block of Memorial Drive for a reported structure fire.
When they arrived, firefighters encountered the fire showing from the second story of the building and the roof.
A box alarm was used due to the size of the apartment complex.
The fire was under control within the hour, but it caused an estimated $750,000 in total property loss.
Howard Fire Chief Dennis Staeven says the cause of the fire is undetermined, and the Brown County Fire Investigation Task Force is currently investigating it.
No one was injured.
Howard Fire and Rescue all thanked other fire departments that came to help including Suamico, Green Bay, Ashwaubenon, De Pere, Hobart, and Ledgeview.
They also thanked the Brown County Communications Center for their assistance.
