  Published at  | Updated at

REXBURG – A lunchtime fire at Taco Bell on Main Street forced the restaurant to close the afternoon of Thursday, Nov. 5.

Madison County Assistant Fire Chief Mikel Walker told EastIdahoNews.com the fire started in the wall behind the fryers shortly before noon.

The fire was contained to the wall on the west side of the building. It spread through the wiring, resulting in some electrical issues.

Two firetrucks and an ambulance responded to the scene. Several people were inside the restaurant, but nobody was hurt.

Taco Bell was closed the rest of the day. No word on when the restaurant will reopen.
