The original location of an Omaha pizza restaurant was damaged in a fire Friday night.
The Omaha Fire Department responded to a fire at Tasty Pizza near 55th and Leavenworth Streets at 9:17 p.m., Battalion Chief Keith Main said at the scene.
Smoke could be seen from the roof when firefighters arrived, and flames went through the roof after a ventilation hole was cut, he said.
No one was in the building at the time of the fire, which was under control after about 25 minutes.
The location is currently closed to the public. An employee was last inside the building about noon Friday, Main said.
The fire is believed to have started in the attic. The cause is under investigation.
Investigators estimated the building suffered $75,000 in damage, according to a report from the Omaha Fire Department. A damage estimate for the contents of the building, valued at an estimated $79,950, was unknown.
