WAUWATOSA, Wis. (CBS 58) -- Coronavirus fears are affecting business at a candy shop in Wauwatosa.
Ultimate Confections -- located at 820 North 68th Street -- found itself with many unsold Easter baskets since most events were canceled -- so they decided to hand out the chocolate to first responders for free!
"We decided let's treat some of the first responders that I'm sure are overwhelmed at this point... something they can look forward to," said Ultimate Confections Owner Pat Murphy. "Know people out there are thinking about them."
The baskets went to Wauwatosa and Milwaukee-area fire departments and the Wauwatosa Police Department.
