DENMARK TOWNSHIP, MN – At approximately 9:40 AM on Tuesday, July 30, 2024, there were reports of a possible explosion followed by a fire at a residence in the 13000 block of Saint Croix Trail South in Denmark Township, MN. Details are limited, but the initial responding units included the Hastings Fire Department, Prescott Fire Department, and the Washington County Sheriff's Office. Once on scene, crews quickly began to conduct search and rescue operations to locate and assist any individuals who might have been in residence at the time of the incident. At this time, no known injuries have been reported.

Additional mutual aid was being called in from St. Croix, Cottage Grove, and St. Paul Park. Initial scanner traffic suggested that emergency personnel were taking a defense attack on the fire, as the structure appeared to be unsafe for personnel entry. It is recommended that the public avoid the area to allow emergency personnel to work efficiently and ensure the safety of everyone involved.

As of 11:55 AM, law enforcement has been unable to provide additional information on the incident. According to reporters with the Hastings Journal, the road has been closed off, and no additional information has been provided. The residence is back in the woods off of Saint Croix Trail South. Crews remain on scene and are working to extinguish the fire.

Once more information is provided, we will be sure to update this article.
