    Firefighters from three departments battled a two-alarm fire at the Kings Row Vegas bar & restaurant in Las Vegas on June7. 

    The fire was reported around 2:25 a.m. at 3111 S. Valley View Blvd. and crews encountered fire coming from the roof on arrival. 

    A second alarm was called and approximately 25 fire apparatus with 50 firefighters from Clark County, Las Vegas  and North Las Vegas were at the scene. 

    It took about 45 minutes to bring the fire under control and a fire wall helped contain the fire from spreading to other businesses in the strip mall.

    Clark County Fire is conducting an investigation into the cause of fire.
