Flames erupted on the patio of Flecha Cantina, a Las Vegas eatery owned by actor Mark Wahlberg, prompting swift action from local fire services. According to KSNV News 3 Las Vegas, the blaze at the Town Square shopping center was reported to the Clark County Fire Department around 5:32 p.m. yesterday. Upon arrival, firefighters found a fire on the patio that had triggered the sprinklers, while patrons had already evacuated the premises.

The incident, which occurred a day before the planned ribbon-cutting ceremony, was isolated to a single propane fire table and was quickly contained by the responding units, who managed to extinguish the fire and confirm that it had not spread to the restaurant's interior. The fire, which caused no injuries or significant damage, did not deter the establishment from sticking to its grand opening schedule today. "A defective fire pit caught fire on the bottom of it," a Flecha spokesperson detailed in a statement acquired by PEOPLE magazine. Following the incident, professionals promptly recharged the sprinkler system, allowing the restaurant to resume operations that evening at 7 p.m.

Flecha Cantina is one of Wahlberg's ventures following his family's relocation to Las Vegas from California, which he has indicated supports both his acting career and his family's diverse interests. "It's a place where my kids can thrive and do their thing and pursue their interests," Wahlberg told PEOPLE in a previous interview. This restaurant joins Wahlberg's portfolio following the successful launch of another Flecha location in Huntington Beach, California, earlier this year.
