(KBJR) – No one was injured, but the La Pointe Fire Department lost all of its ambulances and firetrucks along with some of the town’s police equipment during an early morning fire Wednesday that destroyed the only fire hall on Madeline Island. 

According to the Town Administrator Lisa Potswald, the building burned for several hours.  No word at this point what time the fire was first reported. 

With many emergency response vehicles out of commission, Potswald said departments out of Washburn, Bayfield, and Red Cliff provided mutual aid. 

As of Wednesday afternoon, a cause of the fire hasn’t been determined.  The fire marshal was on scene investigating.
