Two people were killed this morning after a single-alarm fire broke out at the Star of India restaurant on Polk and Broadway. "The kitchen was fully involved in flames when firefighters arrived," said San Francisco Fire Department Lt. Mindy Talmadge according to Bay City News. The bodies were found in a loft space just above the kitchen. Also, "one firefighter's foot fell through the floor of the loft," prompting the crew to leave until the area was reinforced.

Other than knowing that one of the fire's victims was a guy, no other details have been released as to their identities.

This is terrible news. Not only have two died this morning because of the early AM fire, but the Star of India's kitchen is, most likely, out of commission for some time. We love us some Indian food during the rare times that our stomach can handle it.
