FLINT TOWNSHIP (WJRT) -
(07/26/12) - There are new details as a Flint Township restaurant tries to pick up the pieces, following a fire that temporarily closed its doors.
A discarded cigarette is suspected in the fire at Don Pablo's on July 15.
About 100 people had to evacuate, but everyone got out safely.
Rita Restaurant Corporation, the parent company of Don Pablo's, says they'll offer a good faith wage continuation and a $100 comeback bonus to employees impacted by the fire.
Management hopes to re-open the restaurant - after some renovations- by mid-August.
Don Pablo's has been serving the area for 18 years.
