No one was injured in an appliance fire at a downtown Chinese restaurant Wednesday.

Hamilton firefighters responded to Supreme Chinese BBQ at 127 MacNab St. N., just off Cannon Street West, around 9 a.m. for reports of a fire inside a commercial oven.

Assistant deputy chief Steve Welton said the response was initially upgraded to a structure fire over fears the blaze could spread throughout the building. Ultimately, crews extinguished the flames before “any serious” spread occurred, Welton said.

A damage estimate to the structure was unavailable as of Wednesday evening.
