165.55 Annotation
Under
Tyler,
436 U.S. 499 (1978), the warrantless search of an entire building on the morning after a localized fire was reasonable as it was the continuation of the prior night's investigation that had been interrupted by heat and nighttime circumstances. State v. Monosso,
103 Wis. 2d 368,
308 N.W.2d 891 (Ct. App. 1981).

Arson investigations under subs. (9) and (10) are subject to search warrant requirements set forth in
Tyler,
436 U.S. 499 (1978). Consent to search is discussed. 68 Atty. Gen. 225.
165.55 Annotation
A burning building clearly presents an exigency rendering a warrantless entry reasonable, and fire officials need no warrant to remain in a building for a reasonable time to investigate the cause of the fire after it is extinguished. Michigan v. Tyler,
