An incident involving a small fire occurred early on Wednesday morning at the well-known restaurant in Lafayette known as Ruffino’s on the River. The Lafayette Fire Department arrived at the scene.
After arriving on the scene, firefighters discovered smoke and flames emanating from the dumpster that was positioned close to the restaurant.
A statement on the Lafayette Fire Department’s social media account stated that the structure of the building located on Camellia Boulevard in Lafayette was not harmed. On the other hand, this kind of fire ought to serve as a reminder to everyone.
Always remember that you should never throw away hot coals or ashes, as they mentioned in their post on Facebook. The best course of action is to wait until they have cooled down before getting rid of them, and even if they are allowed to cool down, it could be a good idea to dampen them down still.
Therefore, if you are a fan of this well-known restaurant, you should take a moment to relax and give the Lafayette Fire Department a lot of credit for their prompt reaction, because the situation could have been much more serious.
After careful consideration, it appears that this very little fire will not disrupt their regular work hours.
