ALL-STAR BURGERS FIRE IN YUCCA VALLEY CAUSES EXTENSIVE SMOKE DAMAGE

Yucca Valley firefighters were also called to All Star Burgers in Yucca Valley early Sunday morning. County Fire Captain Jay Dimoff said passers-by called 911 at 12:53 a.m. to report the restaurant was filled with smoke. When firefighters arrived, the smoke had filled the restaurant almost to the floor. Firefighters found a small fire inside the kitchen, where it appeared discarded rags with a cleaning solvent on them had combusted. Dimoff said the smoke damage to the restaurant was quite extensive, estimated at $30,000 to $35,000. The Ground Control Hobby store next door appeared to escape smoke damage, but some smoke had gone through the vents into the Kidz Closet store on the other side.
