CHIPPEWA TOWNSHIP, Pa. — A Wendy's restaurant in Chippewa Township is closed after a kitchen fire forced people out of the building.
According to the manager, workers smelled something unusual around 2:30 p.m. Sunday and thought it was gas.
Soon after, the fryers erupted in flames.
The fire chief told Channel 11 the fire spread to the ceiling.
Eight workers and several customers were inside at the time. No one was hurt.
The restaurant will be closed for about two weeks while the damage is fixed.
