Summit Fire & EMS responds to a kitchen fire at Fritangas Mexican Restaurant in Silverthorne


Summit Fire & EMS responded to a kitchen fire at Fritangas Mexican Restaurant in Silverthorne in the middle of the night, according to a Facebook post earlier this morning. 

The post, made on Saturday morning, Jan. 7, said that the organization was responding to an automated smoke alarm but a fire was discovered when firefighters arrived on scene. 

The post said that “a quick attack by the first engine crew on scene knocked down the fire completely before the second-in engine companies even arrived.” It went on to say that damage was confined to the kitchen but that the restaurant “survived.” 

A cause has not yet been determined.
