At 04:43 on December 30th, 2019 Littleton Police officers investigating an alarm at the Rubios Coastal Grill located 111 W. Mineral Ave., discovered smoke and windows warm to the touch. A confirmed commercial structure fire response from South Metro Fire Rescue was dispatched and companies arrived a short time later. Battalion Chief 2 sized up a small, single story, commercial building with smoke showing from the roof. Battalion Chief assumed command in the offensive strategy on the bravo side, assigned Ladder 12 to conduct a 360 and primary search and Engine 15 to pull a line for fire attack. Engine 15 established their own water supply and advanced a 1 ¾” to the alpha side door where Ladder 12 forced entry and found smoke from floor to ceiling. Medic 12 assisted with the attack line, Safety 18 assumed incident safety and Battalion Chief 1 assisted with accountability. Engine 33 positioned at a second hydrant on Mineral Avenue and prepared to supply Tower 18, if needed. Tower 18 spotted on the delta side and laddered the structure. A roof report revealed nothing significant and companies inside quickly located and controlled a fire in the kitchen. District Chief 1 acted as the Senior Advisor, Med 1 managed EMS standby and rehab and MetCom IDT assisted with CAD documentation. All searches proved negative, no injuries occurred, and extensive overhaul was performed by several crews. The business sustained major damage and investigators are working to determine the cause. Additional information was provided by South Metro Fire Rescue
