A fire and series of explosions that apparently started in the Colonel's Restaurant destroyed a part of Northeast Harbor this morning.
According to the Bangor Daily News, three Main Street buildings were destroyed in the fire, which started at about 3:00 AM, and that the explosions were believed to have been caused by propane tanks in the Colonel's, a popular dining spot and bakery in the heart of the town.
WMTW in Portland also mentions that a number of residences above the businesses on Main Street were also destroyed.
