Semi Trailer on Fire 

On April 26, 2025 at approximately 1306 hrs., the Grant County Sheriff's Office was notified of a semi tractor trailer on fire in the southbound lane of USH 151, at Mile Marker 9, in Paris Township. When the deputy arrived, it was determined John L. Wubben, (73), of Cuba City, was driving a 2020 Mack semi tractor pulling a John Deere Excavator on a flatbed trailer when the right rear tires on the trailer started on fire. Wubben was able to unhook from the trailer while waiting for the fire department to arrive.  

Wubben was not injured and the trailer sustained damage but was able to be driven from the scene. The Dickeyville Fire Department, Dickeyville Ems, and Guy's Truck and Tractor assisted the Sheriff's Office at the scene.
