Everyone inside the duplex escaped unharmed.Lake Geneva FD says its decision to upgrade the situation to a full structure fire was due to the building's age, construction and concealed spaces inside. Williams Bay, the Town of Burlington, the City of Delavan, Sharon and Bloomfield-Genoa City Fire Departments were all called to assist on-scene."The rapid response and coordination with our mutual aid partners prevented this fire from spreading further into the living spaces," Lake Geneva Fire Chief John Peters said.
