HOUSTON — Assistant Fire Chief Omero Longoria says three people were taken to a hospital after fire destroyed a historic downtown Houston restaurant.
Firefighters got the call of a fire at Brennan’s restaurant in downtown Houston just after midnight, but were still on the scene more than four hours later, Longoria said Saturday.
“It was a pretty massive fire,” Longoria said.
Two men and a little girl were outside the restaurant when firefighters got there. Longoria said the two men were workers at the restaurant and the girl was the daughter of one of the men.
The father and daughter were transported to a hospital in critical condition with burns to 70 percent of their body. The other man was also taken to the hospital, he said.
