TIJUANA.- A fire registered during midnight left total losses at five stores on Calle 7 on Avenida Revolución.

Firefighters worked from around 12:20 am until 8:00 am at the scene.

The incident started at the Hotel Express.

One of the affected locations was the iconic Restaurant Chiki Jai, which was just in the process of being relocated a few meters away due to the construction of a new building by the Cosmopolitan Group, its new SIE7E.

Unofficially, people are saying that some persons entered theplace to steal, and that some of their actions led to the fire that ended up consuming the old hotel.
