VILLAGE OF SUSSEX, Wis. — Some residents of a Sussex condo are searching for another place to stay after a 63-year-old man drove into a garage at a condo on Water Tower Court on Thursday afternoon, according to the Waukesha County Sheriff’s Department.
The sheriff’s office said the man accidentally accelerated as he was pulling into the garage shortly before 4 p.m. on Dec. 19, crashing through the structure.

It’s unclear how badly the building was affected, but the sheriff’s office said a restoration company responded to assess the damage, which appears to have displaced about four units.
