More than 50 Kaukauna residents displaced after storm tore roof off apartment building

KAUKAUNA - More than 50 residents from the Round House Manor apartment building in Kaukauna were displaced Tuesday night when a severe thunderstorm with high winds tore the roof off the building.

Residents are currently staying at a temporary shelter and the Red Cross is working to find permanent housing for those displaced, according to a press release from the city. No injuries have been recorded.

The National Weather Service in Green Bay reported estimated wind gusts reached 70 mph as storms moved through Kaukauna.

The storm also knocked down multiple trees throughout the city and knocked out power for roughly 4,200 customers last night.

By Wednesday morning Kaukauna Utilities reported it had restored power to most of its customers with approximately 40 households still without power by 6 a.m.

For those still without power, the city has opened a charging station in the community room at the Street, Park and Recreation building located at 207 Reaume Ave.
