What caused Habanero’s fire?

PRINCETON – A cause for the early morning blaze that engulfed Habanero’s Mexican Grill and Catina in downtown Princeton Wednesday morning is yet to be investigated.

The Office of State Fire Marshal media relations agent Milly Santiago has been in contact with fire marshal Linda Hacker, who was called to investigate the scene Wednesday once the fire was extinguished.

Santiago released information from Hacker stating no investigative work has yet been able to take place in the building because of the extent of damage to the building. She explained the area is unsafe to enter, and Hacker is waiting for an insurance company to bring in heavy equipment to dig out the structure before an investigation can take place.
