January 17, 2017 viking210

A fire in a dumpster outside an apartment building was put out quickly, but it sent smoke into the three-story apartment complex, according to a release from the Madison Fire Department. Firefighters were called at 10:45 a.m. Friday to the parking garage of the Normandy Apartments at 4715 Sheboygan Avenue on a report of a dumpster fire.  Firefighters said an automatic sprinkler activation caught the fire early and put it out.  There was heavy smoke inside the garage and moderate smoke conditions throughout the three-story apartment complex.
