At approximately 4:30 p.m. Wednesday August 28 fire erupted in the kitchen area of local popular eatery Mo’s Seafood and chowder at 860 SW 51st St in Lincoln City.
Upon arrival, North Lincoln Fire and Rescue (NLFR) found the initial fire had been extinguished but upon further investigation found that the fire was still active within a walled area nearby requiring NLFR to open up the wall to finally extinguish the fire.
According to Public Information Officer (PIO) Cody Heidt no injuries occurred to Mo’s staff, customers or firefighters.
Initial cause of the blaze is being laid on a faulty gas line but no definitive verdict has been reached yet.
This is the third commercial fire this month in Lincoln City and some on the Lincoln City Homepage Community page on Facebook have questioned whether or not the fires are somehow linked.
I asked PIO Heidt that question and his answer was a definitive “No, the fires are completely unrelated.”
He did caution that as we move toward cooler weather that everyone should be aware of the dangers of improper extension cord usage in homes or businesses.
