Al Capone Restaurant Burned to Ground
June 9, 2010: Firefighters were unable to save the Riviera Restaurant from the fire. The popular old restaurant, built sixty miles outside of Chicago, was entirely gutted.
The firefight was hindered as a result of a lack of water. The restaurant was positioned away from any hydrants and water needed to be delivered by tanker.
Other crews from a number of communities in the region were also called to help.
No one was hurt in this fire. An investigation is at this time underway.
