VIDEO: A fire tore through a portion of a vacant restaurant in the northwest Las Vegas valley on Saturday, according to a fire department spokesman.
Crews were called around 7:41 p.m. to the corner of Rainbow Boulevard and Cheyenne Avenue, Tim Szymanski with Las Vegas Fire & Rescue said in an email. They found the outside of the former Asian Star Buffet on fire. Firefighters put out the flames, with only minor extension reported to the outside rear of the building.
No injuries were reported and damage is estimated at $35,000, Szymanski said. The cause is possibly homeless-related.
