Fire has once again hit too close to home, and I'm just glad no one was hurt.

I'll update as benefit shows are confirmed. Thank you. ~Kelly



"A popular Southtown bar and restaurant was damaged and another destroyed by fire early Monda

San Antonio Fire Department Capt. Eric Jones said a La Tuna Grill employee who lives in an apartment above the restaurant heard a “small explosion” just before 6 a.m., saw flames and ran outside.

The neighboring Pedicab Bar and Grill was quickly engulfed. Jones said it appeared the fire started at the rear of Pedicab and spread from there, but the cause and origin weren't official."
