ATTLEBORO — On Saturday, May 23, 2026, at approximately 5:03 p.m., firefighters with the Attleboro Fire Department responded to Park Street Pizza at 104 Park Street following reports of a fire inside the restaurant.
According to the Attleboro Fire Department, when crews first arrived on scene, they observed heavy, dark smoke coming from the restaurant. Fire crews made an interior attack using portable fire extinguishers and brought the fire under control in approximately five minutes.
Smoke from the fire entered parts of a multifamily residential structure that’s attached to the restaurant, but firefighters were able to prevent the fire from extending into or damaging the residential occupancy.
“Fires in restaurants can be difficult due to the variety of potential ignition sources and cooking equipment involved,” District Chief Michael Maitland said. “Crews extinguished this fire extremely quickly, preventing further damage to the restaurant and surrounding structure.”
Gas and electrical service to the restaurant were shut off after the fire. The local Health Department was also notified, the Attleboro Fire Department noted.
Members of the Attleboro Fire Investigation Unit responded to the scene to investigate the cause of the fire. The preliminary investigation indicates that the damage was isolated to the area surrounding the fryer.
No injuries were reported.
The Pawtucket Fire Department, Mansfield Fire Department, North Attleborough Fire Department, and Cumberland Emergency Medical Services provided station coverage for the Attleboro Fire Department during the response.
