According to a report from Post Crescent, Chilton (WI) Fire Department (CFD) firefighters rescued a man hanging from a second-story window of a house that was on fire Sunday night.
The CFD responded at 6:18 p.m. to a call about a house on fire at Court and Heiman Streets. On arrival, flames were shooting from the back of the home. CFD crews used a ladder to bring the man down safely.
CFD officials the resident was transported to and treated at Ascension Calumet Hospital for nonlife-threatening injuries. A firefighter also was treated at the hospital for smoke inhalation and has since been released.
