The Tucson Fire Department battled to put out a two-alarm fire at the former Bum Steer restaurant.
According to the Tucson Fire Department, the flames had burned 25 percent of the building when they arrived on the scene in the 1900 block of North Stone.
After using a large hose to extinguish the flames on the outside, firefighters entered the building and were able to confirm that there was no one inside the building.
Since the building is multiple levels, TFD fought the remainder of the fire from the outside for several hours until it was eventually put out.
The cause of the fire is still under investigation.
