National Fire and Prevention Week kicks off today. This year's theme is "Smoke Alarms: Make them work for you."
The theme will emphasize the critical role of smoke alarms in fire safety and prevention. Events will showcase interactive demonstrations, educational sessions, and community engagement activities.
The hope is to educate as many children and families as possible. In just the last week alone, several fires broke out around Milwaukee. Our crews were there on the scene as firefighters worked to battle the flames.
TMJ4's Gideon Verdin spoke with one family who lost everything in a house fire.
The cause of another fire is still under investigation near 27th and Lisbon.
The Survive Alive House (2059 S. 20th St.) will host a fire safety event on Monday, October 7th at 10 a.m. to kick-off National Prevention Week.
