AUBERRY HOUSE, OAK CREEK
A fire started on an outside wall and spread to the siding
and into the attic at the Auberry House (community based
residential facility). When the Oak Creek Fire Department
arrived to extinguish the fire, they found that flames had
been controlled by two attic sprinklers. All residents were
evacuated and there were no injuries.
“Fire damage was confined to the immediate area, but
it may have been a different story if the sprinklers did
not hold the fire in check,” said George Krudop, Asst.
Oak Creek Fire Chief.
