Fire in Cotton Patch parking lot extinguished

CLOVIS — Fire was briefly on the menu for a Clovis restaurant Wednesday evening.

Cotton Patch on Prince Street had a small fire in its parking lot, but it was quickly extinguished and restaurant management reported no structural damage or injuries.

Employees were welding a sign above the restaurant, and sparks caught the shrubbery below.

Clovis Fire Department Lt. John Bradley said the call came in just before 6 p.m., and the exterior fire was extinguished about a minute after the CFD crew arrived.
