Firefighters are battling a blaze at a restaurant in Cavendish, P.E.I., on Tuesday morning.
Linda Lowther, who operates an accommodations business near the 300-seat Friendly Fishermen restaurant on Route 6, said there was a large explosion just after 6 a.m.
Photographs sent from witnesses on the scene just before 8 a.m. show there is little left of the restaurant.
