Firefighters said a Greenville restaurant was badly damaged early Sunday morning after an explosion.
A natural gas leak triggered an explosion inside Speros Original Petes Too on Stone Avenue at East North Street, according to Investigator L. C. Dendy with the Greenville Fire Department. The explosion happened just after midnight, and Dendy said firefighters believe flooding may have led to the natural gas leak. Owner Spero Conits said the explosion happened about an hour after employees left the building.
