WAUKESHA, Wis. — An overnight fire damages Oscar’s Frozen Custard in Waukesha. Fire crews in Waukesha County responded to the blaze just after midnight Tuesday morning.
Town of Brookfield Assistant Fire Chief Tony D’Amico was one of the responders and said the fire was already well underway. “When I arrived on the scene, there were flames showing from the roof area — a lot of flames.”
After the fire crew’s arrived, D’Amico says fire fighters were kept out of the building and fought the blaze from outside. “It was decided, pretty much right from the get-go that it was going to be a defensive attack, that we weren’t going to put anybody inside as the roof collapsed.”
D’Amico added the damage to the restaurant was extensive and it was likely a total loss.
The cause of the fire is still under investigation.
