CLEVELAND --
Investigators will try to figure out Friday if lighting started a fire that destroyed a West Park business.
Fire burned through Susan Butler's Hallmark store late Thursday afternoon in the Warren Village shopping center.
Firefighters believe the fire started in the store, then spread to the nearby Gepetto's restaurant.
Gepetto's owner Mike O'Malley said he has about $60,000 in damage.
"It's kind of sad after all these years, but nobody got hurt so that's a plus. It's an act of nature and we're all lucky," said O'Malley.
The fire also damaged a bank.
No one was hurt.
