More than 30 firefighters battled the fire at Carl’s Jr. restaurant at 13640 Golden West St. for 20 minutes, said Westminster Fire Capt. Craig Campbell.
No one was injured in the 4:40 p.m. blaze and no one has been arrested, Campbell said. Campbell said the restaurant was boarded up, but that food preparation equipment was inside.
