OSHKOSH, WI (WTAQ) – Three people have been displaced by an Oshkosh apartment fire.
Crews responded to 227 Merritt Avenue just before 2 am.
It took 20 firefighters roughly 90 minutes to extinguish the blaze. Crews remained on scene until 8 am.
Investigators say a roofing contractor started a small fire Monday afternoon and incorrectly thought it was out.
It smoldered all day and reignited at night.
Heavy damage was caused, but nobody was injured.
The Red Cross is helping two of the displaced residents.
