According to the Oshkosh Fire Department, crews responded to 330 North Koeller Street in Oshkosh for a water flow alarm. Upon arrival, crews upgraded the alarm to a structure fire after observing smoke coming from the building.

The fire activated the fire sprinkler system which controlled the fire until it could be fully extinguished.
