West Allis police assisted State Fair police during an incident on the Wisconsin State Fair's final night; authorities have released no details and video shows a large police presence inside the fairgrounds as it wrapped up.
On the Wisconsin State Fair's final night in West Allis, at least one officer was punched and multiple fights broke out near Spin City rides; dispatch audio indicated police requested more help, and by around 10 p.m. officers on horseback were at the north entrance as chaos persisted. This is a developing story.
The City of West Allis in Wisconsin has filed a lawsuit against Burger King Company, LLC over an abandoned Burger King restaurant that has been vacant for at least six years. The city claims that the deteriorating building constitutes a public nuisance, with broken windows, overgrown grass, and garbage piling up on the property. The lawsuit seeks to compel Burger King to make repairs, demolish the building, or sell it to a new buyer. The city had previously issued a notice of public nuisance to Burger King in May, but the repairs made by the company were deemed superficial and improper. Neighbors are eager to see the building fixed and potentially used for a new restaurant.
