Nobody was injured in a marsh fire fueled by strong winds in Fond du Lac County over the weekend. Firefighters from 11 departments battled the blaze on County Highway CCC. A controlled burn quickly spread from an acre to five acres before it was contained. The property owner was burning garbage in a burn barrel and thought the fire was extinguished but it accidentally spread to the marsh with winds of 20-30 miles an hour and gusts near 50 mph.
