Restaurant goes up in flames - NBC4i.com

D.C. firefighters had to withstand brutally cold winds while fighting blazing hot flames at a Shaw business Wednesday night.

The heavy winds fanned the flames that completely tore through Sumah's West African restaurant and carry out on 7th street Northwest just before 7 p.m.

D.C. Fire and EMS said no injuries were reported and firefighters managed to get the fire under control. 

Fire officials said the gusting winds made a bad fire worse.

Propane tanks on the building's roof also fueled the heavy blaze.

A volunteer canteen unit brought warm drinks and other refreshments to the firefighters as they braved the bitter cold.
