At 11:33 pm Lake Oswego Firefighters responded to a report of an explosion and fire at a local restaurant. Firefighters arrived at Scratch Restaurant located at 149 A Avenue in Downtown Lake Oswego to find the front windows blown into the street. There was smoke coming from the building and a fire was burning in a room off of the main restaurant area.
Firefighters advanced hose lines into the structure and were able to bring the fire under control in less than 10 minutes. Additional firefighters checked neighboring occupancies to ensure the fire had not spread to those tenant spaces. It was determined that the fire was contained to the original occupancy.
No one was in the business when the explosion occurred and no injuries were reported.
Lake Oswego Firefighters were assisted by Tualatin Valley Fire and Rescue at the fire and Portland Fire provided an engine to help cover other 911 calls.
The Fire Marshal will work through the night trying to determine a cause.
