SUN PRAIRIE, Wis. — A Sun Prairie family has been displaced after their home sustained an estimated $40,000 in damage Wednesday after a fan motor ignited and spread to other parts of the house.
Fire crews said they were called to the 200 block of Queens Street just around 4 p.m. after the residents found their home filled with smoke upon returning home for the day. No one was inside the home at the time.
Firefighters were at the scene within five minutes and quickly extinguished the fire, which had started in the building’s second-floor bathroom.
Initial estimates put the damages at $30,000 for the building itself and $10,000 for everything inside. The four-person family has been displaced until repairs are done.
No one was injured by the fire.
