MADISON, Wis. The Madison Fire Department says used charcoal is to blame for a large dumpster fire on the city’s far west side earlier this week, and it’s part of a larger trend they’re seeing lately.
Ladder 7 was called out to the 6500 block of Raymond Road just after 9 a.m. Monday for a fire in a fenced-in dumpster area. Firefighters saw flames coming from the top of a dumpster and extending to a chain link fence nearby, meltting the plastic privacy strips that were woven into the fence.
The fire was put out in just a few minutes and the dumpster was removed from the area.
