Fire damages Knott's building

The blaze was reported around 2:20 a.m. in a structure that houses a Johnny Rockets, a laser tag area and an arcade, said Orange County Fire Authority Capt. Steve Concialdi.

The structure is located along the park’s boardwalk area.

The fire apparently began as a result of a welder’s torch during work inside the building, he said.

Several construction workers were inside at the time but all escaped without injury.
