The County Fire Marshal’s Office has determined what caused the fire at the Route 29 Taco Bell restaurant on Saturday, December 4. The fire was accidental, officials says, and was caused by sparks from work being done by a contractor on the exterior of the building which ignited materials inside the building wall.

$1 million in damages. Really? Were they about to introduce a new line of gold foil-wrapped burritos?
