Firefighters were dispatched to a two-story home in Zion, a city near the Wisconsin border, late Tuesday after callers reporting seeing smoke and flames, the Zion Fire Rescue Department said. When fire crews entered the house they found three people who were removed but could not be resuscitated. Fire officials said it’s believed everyone who was in the house has been accounted for.Battalion Chief Rocco Campanella said the three people who died were adults but no additional information on them was available as of Wednesday morning.“All I could see was like it was lit up in the back. I said that must have been a lightning strike or something,” he said.
High winds hampered firefighters’ efforts and it took crews nearly four hours to fully extinguish the blaze. The cause was under investigation.
