COLON (WKZO) -- Fire investigators in Colon are blaming a fire that destroyed four downtown businesses on an accidental kitchen fire, specifically a faulty piece of kitchen equipment in the kitchen at Mancino’s Restaurant.

Also destroyed were a bar, a pizza joint and an insurance agency. The insurance agency has already set up shop across the street.

The other three businesses will have to check with their insurance agencies to see if they can rebuild.
