At around 5:15 p.m. on November 5th, the fire crews responded to the report of a structure fire on the 6500 block of McQuade Road in Duluth Township. An unoccupied residence was found to be a total loss as a result of the fire.
There were no injuries reported, and authorities are still investigating the cause of the fire. According to Sgt. Zachary Peterson, the structure had no electrical power, so there are potential suspicions of the wood stove that heated the structure.
No cause has been officially determined at this time. St. Louis County Sheriffโs Office and area fire departments from Clifton, Lakewood, Normanna, and Gnesen Townships responded to extinguish the flames.
