Four Alarm Fire at Falk Corporation in Milwaukee

At 8:10 this morning an explosion reportedly felt as far away as Racine county rocked the Menomonee Valley.

For more information on this breaking story, follow these links:

Channel 12:

This includes a link to their weather cam which is currently trained on the fire.

As I see more coverage I'll post it here.

I've been keeping up with this story this morning and so far it seems as if one person has been killed and many others have been injured. There is an unknown amount of people that are also missing.

A hot line has been set up for family to get information. The number is 414-286-3616. The Milwaukee County Sheriff's Department says if you are concerned about family or friends who worked at Falk, you can also go to Friday's at Miller Park to get more information. Employees are being transported there by county buses.

I live about 25 blocks from where this happened and I definitely felt the explosion. Luckily I didn't have any broken windows or other damage.

Getting back in gear
The cause of the Dec. 6 explosion remains under investigation. But Falk has rebounded, to some extent, and could return to filling product orders on a normal schedule by mid-March, according to company officials.
