FREDERICK, Md. — An overnight fire has damaged a Frederick landmark.
Red Horse Steakhouse sits on the City's 'Golden Mile' along Route 40 (W. Patrick Street), just off the US-15 exit ramp, next to the Comfort Inn hotel.
Frederick County Fire & Rescue
The iconic business has been locally owned and operated since 1968.
Just before 3am the restaurant's roof caught fire.
Crews pulled a second alarm as smoke began to spread. The fire was eventually extinguished, but the cause remains under investigation.
Red Horse was closed at the time, so luckily there were no injuries.
A Frederick County Fire official didn't reveal how much damage was left behind, but said "the restaurant is not operational at this time."
