Parts of Tic Tac’s restaurant burnt as petrol tanker catches fire

The flames and heat from the raging fire partially affected the plastic signage and roofing of the Gennex Pizza Restaurant and Grill owned by the Musician, Tic Tac.

The lower undercarriage portions of the bulk suffered severe fire damage.

Substantial liters of petrol were salvaged from the fire. The entire Paradise Rest Stop premises, including its various eateries, shops, and the fuel service station was not affected by the damaging fire.

Fortunately, no casualty was recorded as the driver escaped unhurt.
