MINNEAPOLIS — A fire at the Gay 90's Thursday afternoon damaged a pool table in the game room.
The Minneapolis Fire Dept. responded to reports of a fire at the Hennepin Avenue club at about 2:30 p.m. When they arrived, there was no active fire but there was smoke.
The fire was contained to a pool table in the game room and was extinguished by sprinklers, officials said. Fire crews ventilated the smoke.
The fire happened before the club opened. Officials said there were two employees in the building but was otherwise empty and no one was hurt.
In a Facebook, the Gay 90's said a battery malfunctioned and started smoking, and that they were opening as scheduled.
