HALIFAX, MASS. (WHDH) - Flames tore through a restaurant at the County Club of Halifax late Sunday night, leaving behind a charred shell.
Firefighters responding to a fire alarm from the country club on Country Club Drive around 11 p.m. found heavy flames coming from the Shanks Restaurant.
A fire suppression system helped contain the fire to the restaurant.
Crews had to shuttle in water due to the fire hydrant being a long distance away, according to the Halifax fire chief.
There were no reported injuries.
The restaurant has been deemed a total loss.
The cause remains under investigation.
