Las Vegas NowHenderson Sushi Bar Damaged in Weekend Blaze
A Sunday morning blaze caused thousands of dollars of damage to an Anthem area sushi restaurant.
The fire at "I Love Sushi" brought out units of the Henderson Fire Department around 7:30 a.m. when a witness spotted black smoke pouring from the eatery on Eastern Avenue.
When firemen arrived white smoke and water was seeping out the back doors indicating the fire sprinklers had gone off and were doing their job to snuff out the flames. Crews forced their way in and completely put out the fire.
"I Love Sushi" suffered heavy water and smoke damage, fortunately other businesses in the Sunrise Ridge Strip Mall were spared. There were no injuries in the blaze.
Fire investigators blamed the storage of combustibles too close to gas fired cooking equipment for starting the blaze. Damage is estimated at a minimum of $50,000.
