LITTLE ROCK, Ark. — The Little Rock Fire Department responded to a fire in the cafeteria of the Arkansas State Capitol at approximately 5:45 p.m. on Thursday.
According to the Little Rock Fire Department, light smoke filled the Capitol Building, and firefighters were able to "quickly" put out the flames coming from the kitchen.
There is heat and smoke damage, but the Littel Rock Fire Department said nobody was injured.
