Kickapoo TWP Fire Department- Leavenworth County

05/18/2026

This morning at approximately 6:20 AM, the Kickapoo Township Fire Department was dispatched to a structure fire involving a detached garage that was fully engulfed upon arrival.

Firefighters responded quickly, and with the assistance of automatic aid and mutual aid departments, the fire was brought under control and extinguished safely. Unfortunately, the structure and its contents were a complete loss.

Kickapoo Township Fire Department would like to thank Easton Township Fire Department, Lansing Fire Department, Fort Leavenworth Fire Department, and High Prairie Fire Department for their response and assistance. We would also like to thank the Leavenworth County Sheriff’s Office and Leavenworth County EMS for their support on scene.

The work completed by all responding personnel in a safe and timely manner demonstrated how teamwork and interagency cooperation go a long way in providing fire protection and emergency services to our communities.

Our volunteers have been very busy the last couple weeks and plan to continue this weekend. We ask everyone to not conduct burns during this county wide burn ban. Remember everytime our volunteers respond they are giving up their time with their families to help their community.

The Rangeland Fire Index will be in the extreme Category through Monday. No burn permits will be issued. Burning of any type is highly discouraged.
