The Sawyer County Sheriff’s Office, in collaboration with the Wisconsin Department of Justice, is investigating four recent fires in the community. The latest fire occurred at DJ’s Mart gas station in Radisson, following three other fires that were discovered less than a week ago. The fires have left families displaced and raised concerns among residents about safety in the area.
Sheriff Doug Mrotek emphasized that each scene is being treated as a potential crime scene until proven otherwise. The incidents have caused fear and uncertainty among residents, with one family losing their new home under construction due to arson.
Local and state officials are working together to investigate the fires, which have sparked widespread concern in the community. Authorities are urging anyone with information about the fires or who may have witnessed suspicious activity to contact the sheriff’s office.
The connections between the fires and their close proximity have raised suspicions of intentional arson, leading to a thorough investigation to determine the cause of the incidents.
