Two people were taken to the hospital and released for smoke inhalation after a fire Tuesday afternoon at 420 S. Broadway in Green Bay. The fire was found in a spray booth according to Green Bay Metro Fire.
When crews arrived, they found heavy fire coming from a single story commercial structure. Crews performed an exterior defensive attack due to the roof caving in. The building housed various paints and lacquers.
The Green Bay Fire Haz-Mat team was called to assist with runoff and to determine if materials were hazardous. They found materials were nonhazardous and posed no environmental hazard.
Crews remained on scene for nearly four hours. There’s about $300,000 in damage and the fire is under investigation by the Fire Marshal’s Office.
